AB - The increase in connectivity on global, national and local arenas provides renewed opportunities and challenges for various community development and educational development initiatives around the world. The Bridge Africa Program of Korea National Commission for UNESCO(KNCU) is one of the more notable examples of Korea’s transnational, translocal, interdisciplinary program. In this research, the Program’s Framework was developed by utilizing the Theory of Change(ToC) as a strategic planning and evaluation method. The results of the research highlight critical lessons for ‘dimensions’ of international educational development.
The main findings are; first, by using this framework, the core areas of the education programs are more clearly re-categorized; second, the wide and ambitious scope of the program was re-organized; third, hosting a series of participatory Theory of Change Workshops provided opportunities for various stakeholder to learn new development methods and to gain a better understandings of vastly different perceptions on goals and outcomes. In this context, it is fair to say the application of ToC in the process of program strategy includes ‘reconcile dilemma between ’accountability’ and ‘learning’. The adaption of the ToC successfully served its role as an analysis tool to understand the motivations of the stakeholders on a more multi-layered, multi-disciplinary and cross-country knowledge on strategic community and education program’splanning, monitoring and evaluation processes were deepened. However, the strong result-oriented approaches, emphasized throughout the planning process may lead to a problematic ‘trade-off’ relations between accountability and learning in the actual field implementation in the future.
