Significance rating scale

Positive significance

  • 1 = a small step towards achieving the programme's intended outcomes
  • 2 = an important change or achievement that reflects progress towards achieving the programme's intended outcomes
  • 3 = a significant contribution to the achievement of the programme's intended outcomes
  • 4 = this Outcome provides evidence that the programme's intended outcome has been achieved
  • 5 = a significant positive change going beyond what was expected in the programmes' strategy

Negative significance

  • -1 = a small negative change or lack of change which indicates a lack of progress towards objectives (requires careful monitoring)
  • -2 = a negative change which moves the programme further away from its objectives (requires consideration of adaptation of activities)
  • -3 = a negative change which moves the programme further away from its objectives and presents risks to the programme's progress (necessitates adaptation of activities)
  • -4 = a negative change which presents a significant risk to the programme's progress or operations (requires a reassessment of programme objectives/strategy)
  • -5 = a major negative change (may require programme closedown/withdrawal)

Peace Goal Description

GOAL 1. ADAPTIVE AND ALTERNATIVE PATHS TO PEACE - PEACEBUILDING OVERCOMES BARRIERS TO CREATING PEACEFUL SOCIETIES

Tag your Outcome to this Peace Goal if it:

  • Involves a change in the attitudes, perceptions and policies of actors that are (or were) obstructive/resistant to peaceful changes
  • Is part of a new/alternative/adaptive/innovative peacebuilding response to a conflict challenge
  • Involves progress in dialogue, mediation and compromise between actors in a conflict/peace process
  • Shifts the discourse around conflict from divisive to more constructive language
  • Is something that was previously considered impossible but has become normal, accepted or up for discussion

GOAL 2. CONNECTING PEOPLE AND PEACE EFFORTS - MORE COHERENT INITIATIVES HELP PREVENT AND REDUCE VIOLENT CONFLICT

Tag you Outcome to this Peace Goal if it:

  • Strengthens connections, complementarity and learning between different peace initiatives in a context
  • Connects local peace initiatives to national, regional and international initiatives (and/or networks)
  • Supports interactions and relationships between community-level actors and higher-level institutions, processes and powerholders
  • Connects communities or actors which were previously divided, increasing mutual understanding between them

GOAL 3. INCLUSION, GENDER AND INFLUENCE - EXCLUDED GROUPS INFLUENCE APPROACHES TO BUILDING PEACE

Tag you Outcome to this Peace Goal if it:

  • Involves broader and more diverse participation in peace initiatives, in terms of gender, age, disability, ethnicity, and other forms of identity and status.
  • Creates new spaces or structures for marginalised people to engage and challenge powerholders and influence their decisions
  • Relates to a positive influence on a peace process effected by a member of a marginalised group
  • Represents a breakthrough in the engagement of a “no-go” or hard to reach population

GOAL 4. PEOPLE CENTRED POLICY - INTERNATIONAL PEACEBUILDING SUPPORT PUTS PEOPLE FIRST

Tag you Outcome to this Peace Goal if it:

  • Relates to international institutions and governments prioritising the prevention of violent conflict through peaceful means
  • Relates to international institutions and governments seeking and responding to peacebuilding perspectives/needs and/or adopting locally-led/participatory approaches to understanding and responding to conflict.
  • Involves international networks, academics and policy-makers and practitioners drawing on peacebuilding evidence for policy impact
  • Improves good peacebuilding “donorship” - longer term, sustainable, flexible approaches to funding and project management
  • Reduces international legal and regulatory obstacles to peacebuilding

Note: The focus of Peace Goal 4 is international policy/actors. This includes multilateral organisations (e.g. UN), peacebuilding networks and bilateral donor institutions. It may also include actors which are external to a context in which CR works, but influential in that context e.g. third countries, regional organisations, regional powers, peacekeeping missions, INGOs etc. It usually does not include the national government in the context, which is likely to be an internal actor to the conflict system and covered by Peace Goals 1, 2, and 3.
