What are the features of a good indicator?
When selecting indicators for any initiative, organization, sector, community or country there are a number of criteria which can be used to assess the quality of any indicator that is being considered. It should be noted that indicators should aways be developed against the relevant underlying visual outcomes (strategy) model.
The criteria for selecting good indicators are set out in Duignan’s Good Indicator Checklist shown below.
