For the past month I've been compiling the impact analaysis data for PACAP (wwww.pacap.org.ph). It has proven to be an interesting and challenging assigment to assimilate data from a diverse protfolio of projects, and to make 'sense' of the impact of the program. It has occured to me that the concept of 'impact' can be interpretted in terms of three dimesions: * Magnitude: the scale of the changes effected. *Timeframe: the amount of time that an intervention may take to realise the intended changes. * Breadth: the extent to which benefits are experienced by a narrow or broad base of beneficiaries.
