Criteria Matter
The details of an intervention matter. The details are where impacts come from, not the whole. An intervention is a series of choices before it becomes actions and activities. People make these choices and people can change them. People make decisions about what to do and how to do it.
Criteria Matter
The criteria for deciding the details of any intervention matter enormously. How we make our decisions has a huge impact on the outcomes of projects and programs. Experience shows that interveners often make these decisions too quickly and without enough thought.
We use criteria in all program choices. Too often, these criteria are implicit and not formalized. Making the criteria explicit is central to effective Do No Harm programming. It is in these details, as they relate to the context, that impacts either do harm or promote positive outcomes for people.
