Integration Principle

Integrate the overarching and operating Blue Marble principles in the design, engagement with, and evaluation of systems change and transformation initiatives.

Premise

Transformation requires multiple interventions and actions on many fronts undertaken by diverse but interconnected actors.

Implications

The Blue Marble Evaluation principles are not a pick-and-choose menu of options. They are an integrated approach that constitute a complete package.
