Tool: Models and Metrics Search

Search by Project Type

Find logic models (ESLMs), outcomes, social and economic metrics, and (coming soon) measurement protocols for each project type.  

Access an image (image file or PDF) of the models, a context document explaining the model, and download and editable version of the model that you can specify for your project.

Search Full Metrics List

Filter metrics by project type, socioeconomic outcomes, metric scale (project or program), tier (level of difficulty), and find measurement protocols for project scale metrics.


About Models

Learn more about models

  • Understand the models' structure
  • Watch a video to learn how to edit models
  • Find definitions and details

Models can be used in proposals to help with project/program justification and to develop a monitoring plan.  

About Metrics

Learn more about metrics

  • Identify socioeconomic metrics linked to outcomes or project types of interest
  • Find measurement protocols for project scale metrics of interest

Use metrics to develop a monitoring plan for your project or program.

I want to...

Illustrate my project's expected outcomes using a logic model (ESLM)... go to the project types search and filter by project type. Download the editable version of the model and edit. (See our video on editable models External link)

Choose metrics for my project... go to the project types search and filter by project type, expand associated metrics list.

Identify project types that are expected to create desired outcomes... go to the project types search and filter by outcome.

Find metrics for a certain outcome... go to the full metrics list and filter by outcome.

Learn about how to measure how much each metric changes after project implementation and understand who is affected by these changes... get metric measurement protocols.
