staff within a respective regional or thematic focus. The workshops/writeshops can
bring together selected projects in a region as a team that will continue to work
together over a period of time. It is key that the agenda is designed to hone the
individual project IPs towards a coherent and cohesive regional and global R4D
program that complements other ongoing initiatives and contributes to the given
development goals.
While it took a considerable amount of effort, the iterative development of the
CCAFS TOCs and impact pathways was done in a resource-efficient way. It started
off mostly virtually and intensely facilitated, building on CCAFS Phase 1 engagement and regional priorities, and was completed in five regional face-to face
meetings with key next-users and stakeholders within the CGIAR research community (Schuetz et al. 2014e, f). Building on the learning-based approach to
developing a suitable TOC approach for CCAFS, a series of learning notes was
written to document the RBM trial experiences and the rolling out of the approach
to the whole program (CCAFS 2015a). The TOC development and facilitation
process, and guidance documentation were revised to make them leaner, more
contextualized and easier to implement (Schuetz et al. 2014d). The TOC building
process is one key component in the CCAFS MEL system that was developed to
support the new approach in a comprehensive manner (CCAFS 2015b).
