The CcIPA Model

5Cs Model

Originally from European Centre for Development Policy Management (ECDPM)

Two stage Implementation 1. Quick scan: apply the logic and 5C models; – focus on immediate outputs and short-term

outcomes– stories and speculations about potential impact– identify key in-depth study needs

Two stage Implementation

2. In-depth study: situation before intervention; scope, data collection, analysis, and reporting structured around impact dimensions

Lessons learned for innovations in evaluation

• The model found relevant and useful• Peg some data collection to other evaluative

activities to rationalise resources• External evaluator needs to have good

knowledge about the organisation

Advise to users of CcIPA

• Planning and timing of the implementation of the study is critical to its success

• It is important to be mindful of the internal dynamics in the organisations that may affect 5Cs assessment scores
