"This guide outlines a step-by-step process for developing program logic in the context of Natural Resource Management (NRM). The guide is aimed at those who are developing a program logic for the first time and may also be helpful to other users in a range of contexts. Developing a program logic is about establishing a framework for methodically exploring and defining the parameters of a project. Because it serves as a roadmap for a project, a program logic helps to give participants greater confidence that their efforts will be comprehensive and effective. In this guide, the term ‘program’ covers all levels of intervention, whether through a project, program, strategy or activity, as well as program design and evaluation. Through a series of exercises, templates and checklists, this guide outlines the key steps in developing a program logic." (Introduction)
