Transformational Development Programming Models
Project Overview June 2007

Background

• The Our Future initiative is completing a major
  review and re-engineering of World Visions
  strategy, structure, and work processes at
  global, regional, and national levels.
• As this renewal of World Visions work progresses
  at higher levels, there is now an urgent need to
  undertake a similar process focused on World
  Visions primary operating model at local level
  the Area Development Programme (ADP).
• World Vision works with communities in more than
  100 countries which includes 1,300 ADPs in 55
  countries.
• There are many forms of ADPs with wide
  variation in scale, coverage, staffing,
  partnering practices, technical capacities,
  resourcing levels, and overall effectiveness and
  efficiency.
• This wide variation has been exacerbated by the
  uncoordinated proliferation of initiatives within
  the WV partnership.

Background (cont.)

• Consequences of uncoordinated development of ADPs
  and proliferation of initiatives
• High pressure on ADP staff
• Reduced time staff can spend with communities
• Thin spread of ADP financial resources
• Some discrepancy between marketing messages and
  field programming in a number of locations
• Inconsistency in sponsorship-related practices
  among ADPs
• Insufficient alignment and synergy among ministry
  streams, sectors, and themes at local level
• There is widespread agreement across the
  partnership on the need to review current ADP
  approaches and develop a new set of
  transformational development programming models
  (TDPM) for the years ahead.

What is the TD Programming Models Project?

• A Partnership-wide project to
• Review the wide range of current ADP and other TD
  approaches within WV and best practices outside
  WV
• Facilitate the development of TD programming
  models based on the findings of the review,
  through a partnership-wide process of co-creation
  and piloting in select contexts.
• The TDPM project will be pursued as an Our Future
  project, embedded within the TD unit in the WVI
  Integrated Ministry and Strategy Division

Links of TDPM with Other WV Operating Models
Category III Emergency Response The full
disaster management cycle, including disaster
risk reduction, will be addressed in TD
programming models for all disasters except those
in Category III. Cat III emergency response needs
to be closely linked to disaster management in
long-term development contexts. National,
Regional Global Advocacy Local advocacy (i.e.
promoting responsible citizenship and good
governance) is part of TD programming models.
National/regional/global advocacy needs to
reinforce and build on the local-level advocacy
and reflect local -level programming. Microfinance
Institutions Linkages of TD programming models
to MFIs operating within and outside TDPM areas
need to be reviewed and strengthened to ensure
optimal synergy.
