Cosecha de Alcances
La Cosecha de Alcances recoge evidencia de lo que ha cambiado (alcances) y luego, trabajando hacia atrás determina si y cómo una intervención contribuyó a esos cambios.
La Cosecha de Alcances se ha comprobado ser útil en situaciones complejas cuando no es posible predefinir lo que una intervención va a lograr o, inclusive, tampoco las acciones específicas a ser tomadas a través de varios años.

Colheita de Resultados
A Colheita de Resultados obtém-se evidencia do que mudou (os resultados) e logo, trabalha para trás para determinar se e como uma intervenção contribuiu para essas mudanças.
A Colheita de Resultados tem sido especialmente útil em situações complexas, quando não foi possível predefinir concretamente o que uma intervenção visa alcançar, ou até mesmo não pode predizer quais ações específicas serão tomadas ao longo de um período de vários anos.

Outcome Harvesting
Outcome Harvesting collects (“harvests”) evidence of what has changed (“outcomes”) and, then, working backwards, determines whether and how an intervention has contributed to these changes.
Outcome Harvesting has proven to be especially useful in complex situations when it is not possible to define concretely most of what an intervention aims to achieve, or even, what specific actions will be taken over a multi-year period.
52 weeks of BetterEvaluation: Week 16: Identifying and documenting emergent outcomes of a global network
12th April 2013 by Kornelia Rassmann
Global voluntary networks are complex beasts with dynamic and unpredictable actions and interactions. How can we evaluate the results of a network like this? Whose results are we even talking about? This was the challenge facing BioNET when they came to the end of their five year programme and is the subject of the second paper in the BetterEvaluation writeshop series, which we want to introduce in this weeks' blog.
Retrospective 'Outcome harvesting': Generating robust insights
This paper describes the use of the Outcome Harvesting approach to evaluate a global voluntary network. It is the second paper published as part of the BetterEvaluation writeshop series. The authors are Kornelia Rassmann, Richard Smith, John Mauremootoo and Ricardo Wilson-Grau. The reviewers were Irene Guijt and Willy Pradel.
