Sponsorship Program Design Guide

Program design, projecting desired results into an uncertain future, is about hypothesizing what resources and interventions will most likely achieve those results. To minimize this uncertainty, a good program design draws on 1) strong contextual knowledge, and 2) the evidence base of what has worked before. This Sponsorship guide features a program design process based around workshops, involving local stakeholders, thematic and programming experts, to craft a program that addresses local needs and aspirations, and meets Save the Children’s strategic priorities and quality standards.
