Making sense of the results and follow up

Contenido

Capturing results of your activity will help clarify your own thinking and also provides a record that can be used in the future. It offers your participants information and recollection of the common work. And people who did not participate can inform themselves about your activity. Recording on the go will help everyone to keep track. It is important to calculate sufficient resources for the recording. Your results and their recording should always correspond to the aim you want to achieve with your activity. Therefore, when choosing your methods, you should already think about whether you need a certain type of recording.
﻿
The results of your dialogue activity may be of diverse nature and consist of concrete tangible results as well as of intangible results like skills and experiences that project organisers and participants have acquired. 
Remember that results can be recorded in different ways – consider interactive methods for documenting results: You can use flipcharts and markers, but also collages, photos, videos, etc. Intangible results are often more difficult to measure.
The use of polls, questionnaires, observations or self-assessment mechanisms may help to record this type of  result.
﻿
Tangible results may include.
Approaches or models to solve a problem
Practical tools or products
Reports
Studies
Good practice guides
Case studies
﻿
Intangible results may include:
New knowledge and experience
Increasing skills or achievements
Increasing awareness and understanding
Fostering civic engagement
Setting impulses
Generate multipliers
﻿
Make your results accessible, to…
show appreciation. Many people have invested time and energy in your result.
enhance continuous workflow. This allows the participants to remember important information.
encourage participants to share with others what they have gained from taking part in the dialogue activity.
engage stakeholders, key actors and target groups.
