This blog provides an introduction to a series of blogs on integrating gender and inclusion in USAID's thinking and working politically programming. It is accompanied by three other blogs, also on The Policy Practice's blog page. 

In this blog formerly published on USAID's blog page, David Jacobstein explores how we can understand adaptive management and maintain accountability for work that is intended to operate adaptively in dynamic contexts.

This blog clarifies roles and improves project design for donors and partners to be clear about the specific logic of their activity (theory of action) and how it relates to a larger logic of change to which they contribute (theory of change).
