THANK YOU!!! I have been struggling to understand this "working backwards" concept for weeks. Your video was exactly what needed to see to successfully work on my final project for this Master's course.
Theory of Change is a specific type of methodology for planning, participation, and evaluation that is used in companies, philanthropy, not-for-profit and government sectors to promote social change. Theory of Change defines long-term goals and then maps backward to identify necessary preconditions. - Wikipedia
This is one of the best video so far. I was looking for the real world example you mentioned. If there is a clip elsewhere, could you please lead us to it?
Thank you for this excellent explainer! We would like to use it in the context of a webinar on ToC we are preparing. For that purpose we created a Duth subtitle track. We would be very grateful if you could add this track to your video. Is that possible? If so, how can we hand over the subtitle file to you? Thanks a lot in advance!
This seems reductionistic, a process that seems convergent from the start, rather than exploratory. Let's look at 'world hunger', or better hunger in a specific place. Let's first find the root cause before we commit more than emergency funds. Is the root cause crop failure? seed and fertiliser unavailability? small plot size being inefficient? lack of routes to market to sell excess and derive a profit? lack of certainty in land holdings and cheap access to simple justice mechanisms? Lack of local skills? Insufficient balance of trade to enable imports of supplies and equipment? Perhaps on a more expansive view we might find that 'solving hunger' is not the problem, but big city corruption. Solve that first. Once a challenge to take has been identified then research has to be committed to find routes to resolution or exploiting the challenge. Then we can develop a hypothesis of change and test it for failure; review, modify and establish a theory of change to be implemented broadly.
Very simply and pragmatically broken down. Excellent!

You try to give the video more brightness it will be great if you do
You can choose for one of the above gifts
Just excellent. Thanks,
Thanks got a good idea but please made some practical projects ToC so we could able to use it as prototype
This is very clear
Thanks man maybe I'll pass my exam now 🥺
Very nice video!
Excellent! It makes a lot sense.
Hello! thanks a lot for this! I hope you can share with us the examples you were talking about at the end of the video!
amazing. i learned a lot
Thank u sir for this wonderful explanation...
Very good presentation. Thankyou

This is very helpful. Thank you so much! Please make more videos like this. (Subscribing =)
