In line with the principles and terminology laid out in
NORAD’s guide on Results Based Management,
1
the
effects of GRID-Arendal’s work under the PCA fall into
one of three categories along the results chain: outputs are
the direct products and services generated by programme

and services have on the target group; and impacts are
the long-term changes, or improvements that occur in
society or in the state of the environment.
