About this file

This file is a logic model and theory of change template for grant applicants. The template guides applicants through a structured framework for designing and articulating their proposed interventions. It requires applicants to define a main problem statement, establish a primary project goal, and develop one or more project objectives. For each objective, applicants must document needs, inputs (human and financial resources), activities, outputs (immediate deliverables and participants reached), short-term outcomes (0-6 months post-implementation), and long-term outcomes (6+ months post-implementation). The template also requires applicants to identify assumptions necessary for project success and external factors that could affect implementation. Finally, applicants must articulate a theory of change statement using if-then language that explains the causal logic connecting project outcomes to objectives and provides the rationale for why the proposed intervention is expected to succeed.

This template is intended for use with the "Safeguarding U.S. Critical Minerals Supply Chains–Tunisia" cooperative agreement opportunity, administered by the U.S. Embassy Tunis and the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs' Office of Assistance Coordination under CFDA 19.600. The program supports commercial diplomacy initiatives focused on transparent, private-sector-led investment in phosphate development, downstream mineral processing optimization, and strengthened trade and investment links between the United States and Tunisia. The template serves as an appendix to help applicants structure their project planning and demonstrate clear logic between their proposed activities and expected outcomes in support of Tunisia's economic development and export capacity.

Logic Model Template

Problem Statement

[State the main problem statement. What problems or issues does the project attempt to solve of address?]

Main Project Goal

[State the main project goal. The following Project Objectives will feed into this Main Project Goal, which will in turn support the overarching IR.]

Project Objective 1: [State the project objective here and divide the logic model by each objective]

Needs
Inputs
Activities
Outputs

(immediately after activity) Short-Term Outcomes (0-6 months after activity) Long-Term Outcomes (6+ months after activity)

What are the needs of the community, based on the social, political, and economic condition of the country or region?
What human and financial resources will be used for this project? Inputs are the resources put into the project- what you invest.

[Examples:

Staff

Money

Materials

Equipment

Partners] What activities will be conducted to achieve project objectives? Activities are what you do.

[Examples:

Conduct workshops, meetings.

Provide trainings.

Develop curriculum of applications.

Deliver services.] What will be produced or delivered and who will participate in activities? Outputs are what you produce/create/deliver.

[Examples:

# Products created.

# Resources developed.

# Participants trained.

# Services delivered.

# Beneficiaries reached.] What changes will happen immediately after to six months after an activity has been implemented? Short-Term Outcomes are the results of your outputs.

[Examples:

Increased awareness or knowledge.

Improved skills.

Increased access to services or products.

Reported change.] What long-term changes will occur in the social, cultural, political, or economic context? These could be changes in behaviors, actions, or conditions in the country. Long-Term Outcomes are relatively enduring results of your outputs.

[Examples:

Change in behavior.

Adoption of best practices.

Sustained access to services or applications]

Project Objective 2: [State secondary project objective here. Add additional Project Objective sections as necessary to report on all project objectives]

Needs
Inputs
Activities
Outputs

(immediately after activity) Short-Term Outcomes (0-6 months after activity) Long-Term Outcomes (6+ months after activity)

Assumptions
External Factors

What factors need to occur, or which stakeholder or grantees need to be involved, for the project to be successful? How and why will proposed activities lead to proposed outputs, and how will outputs lead to outcomes?

[Country’s political and economic condition; Skills and knowledge level of intended beneficiary; Implementer’s organizational capacity; Level of engagement by stakeholder] What factors that are not in the control of the project- e.g. changes in government policies or the political situation- could affect expected activities, outputs, and outcomes?

[Change in government policies, such as NGO restrictions; Change in political situation, such as coup or civil unrest; Involvement from other donors and implementers]

Theory of Change Statement

Describes how and why a program is expected to achieve its stated outcomes using if-then language.

If [insert project outcomes] then [insert project objectives], because [insert rationale/ research/ reasoning for this intervention to achieve your objectives]
