Our Impact
We follow a learning-by-doing methodology,
where regular reflection and evaluation is critical.
Everything we do is guided by the principles in our theory of change…
CLASS has a Theory of Change that articulates the problems, input, actions, outputs and long term impacts we are aiming to achieve. Everything we do is guided by the principles in our theory of change and is assessed against progress towards these goals. We conduct annual impact evaluation and draw our findings from member questionnaires, interviews with leaders and partners and documentation we have gathered over the year.
