The next few posts may seem very dry, and the link to performance measurement might not be immediately clear.
They will consist of different statistical and mathematical formulas which I may or may not refer to in future posts. Without going into too much detail, let me just say that “how” you measure something doesn’t just refer to what indicators you will use to try to measure an outcome, “how” can also refer to how your indicators or measures are calculated. That’s just one of the challenges of the practical side of performance measurement, as opposed to the more theoretical side of defining outcomes, logic models and frameworks.
