Indicators - INTRAC

Indicators INTRAC 2015 1 Indicators are commonly used in development interventions to provide evidence of change, and form an important part of most M&E systems and approaches. Indicators can be set at many different levels. There are many different types, the most common of which are quantitative and qualitative Indicators . Indicators can be developed and refined in different ways, depending on the context. Indicators are defined in many different ways by different organisations. Two definitions are provided below, but there are many others: A quantitative or qualitative factor or variable that provides a simple and reliable means to measure achievement, to reflect the changes connected to an intervention, or to help assess the performance of a development actor.

In addition to quantitative and qualitative indicators, there are other kinds of indicators which can be useful. Mixed indicators contain an element of both quantitative and qualitative data. For example, ‘# and description of policies changed regarding child protection’. These indicators can be used to show both the scale and depth of change.
