Report on LFA

Introduction
In three days we learnt about LFA, which means ‘Logical Framework Analysis’. The first day of class started as usual at 9:00 o’clock. In the morning Batta came to over class. First we started the prayer song, then after Prekash took the class about LFA. He taught us many things. First now I will tell about LFA.
Key points of the Module
What is Logical Framework Analysis? “Log frame is a tool for planning and managing development, and it describes/summarizes a project. It looks like a table and aims to present information about the key components of a project in a clear, concise, logical and systematic way”. (Source- prakash)
Where’s the logic? “There is a logical connection between the cells of the matri. That logic that connects the cells in the left-most column is referred to as vertical logic. The logic connects the remaining three columns is referred to as level logic. It means “the vertical logic is the hierarchy of objectives of the project.” (Source-prakash)
Problem Analysis: If there is no agreement between parts of the statement of problem, is unlikely there will be agreement on the solution. This stage therefore seeks to get agreement on the detailed aspects of the problem.
LEA is best started early in activity design. It has a common and flexible application. Activity planning and management should always be approached as a team job. This means that passable opportunity should be given to colleges and key stakeholders to give input to the process and product of LFA. This can be supported by -AAAID
Why use LFA? “LFA can be a useful tool in the planning, monitoring and evaluation and management of development projects. It is not only a planning tool and should not be considered an end in itself. Clear and specific thinking about what the project aims to do and importance those aspects upon which success depends”.
Practical lessons learned:
First, the fellows were divided into groups. Next we prepared the problem tree, objective tree and project planning matrix. Then we combined. In each group there were three members. In our group were Gayatri, Chandrasheker and I. We prepared the problem trees with PPT. The problem tree is constructed by selecting a problem from the list and involving the problem to a starter problem using the cause effect basis described below. If the problem is an effect of the starter problem it goes above.
