  2. Overview • What and why ALPS? • ALPS core requirements • Principles, Attitudes, Behaviours • Processes and outputs • Global Monitoring Framework

  3. What is ALPS • Alps is a framework that sets out the key accountability requirements, guidelines, and processes in ActionAid International. • Alps sets us standards, not only about what we do but more importantly how we do it.

  4. Bold Shift to Rights Strategy (FPT + New Leadership +Trustees + Hard Hitting Taking Stock 1) Why ALPS ? Project focused! Reported against Planned activities & explained the difference VERY LINEAR Demanding & Cumbersome reporting Emphasis on upward accountability Pressure to show How money is spent And INGOs to show effectiveness Little input from poor people and little validation of ideas

  5. Centrality of Poor People ALPS: Principles ALPS Core Principles Multiple Accountabilities, of which downward is most important Transparencyand proactive sharing of information in relevant forms Commitment to Women’s Rights and Gender Equality in all we do Constant analysis of and action on power imbalances Simplified Reporting in favour of critical engagement, mutual learning and downward accountability ALP applies to the whole of ActionAid and forms the basis for its partnerships

  6. Principles • Poor people must define agenda and own “indicators” of what CHANGE looks like • Its not the tool that matters it is the attitude and behaviour of the “user” • Rigid frameworks less important than process and relationships • Who wants to know – and why does it matter? Upward or downward?

  7. GMF- Key Questions • What did we do? • In pursuit of which right/s? • Resulting in what changes? For whom? • With what impact on power and power relations?

  8. Areas of change- focus on power • Critical consciousness, capacity, action of rights holders • Tangible changes in people’s lives/material conditions • Organisation, action and movement building/growth • Policies and practices of states & other duty bearers

  9. Tools and Methods • Story telling • Participatory review and reflection processes • Written reports • External reviews • Peer reviews
