GOAL FORMULATION AND TARGET SETTING
Sectoral Goalsare whatever it takes to close the vision – reality gap identified in the specific
sector.
Importance of Goals in Planning
As an end toward which all future actions specified in the
plan are directed.
As a set of criteria for evaluating alternative strategies
and approaches
As a standard against which the success or failure of
each action is measured
Goals serve at least three (3) purposes in the planning
process:
Sources of Sectoral Goals
Vision – Reality Gap
Problem – Solution Finding Matrix
Map Overlay Analysis
Community-based Monitoring System
Local Governance Performance Management System

FORMULATING SECTORAL GOALS
THE SHORT METHOD
Treat the gap as a problem.
Invert, negate or reverse the negative
condition to become a desirable state,
hence, a goal.
Goals Technically Derived
Goal is the inverse of a problem
GOAL =1

FORMULATING SECTORAL GOALS
THE LONG METHOD
1. Follow the logic of the “Problem – Solution –
Finding Matrix”
a. Treat the vision – reality gap as an
“observed condition” or new information
created
b. Subject the observed condition to the
process of extracting intelligence and
exploring policy implications
FROM GAPS TO GOALS
FORMULATING SECTORAL GOALS
c. Proceed to complete the matrix by first
determining the reasons for or causes of
the observed gaps, then exploring the
possible implications of the gaps if these
continue to remain unfilled.
d. Develop policy interventions targeting
both implications and the explanations.
2. Formulate the policy interventions in the
form of goal statements, i.e. “To + verb ...”
Example: To make clean, safe water
within reach of every household.

What do these figures mean?
1
This entails probing into the causes or
explanations behind the observed condition
s.
It asks the question, “Why?”
It provides the clue to finding more
fundamental solutions by attacking the
causes rather than the symptoms of the
problems.
2
It asks the question, “So what?” if no
significant intervention is made
Analysis can be extended further
into determining appropriate
policy interventions
3
Take NOTE!
If positive implications predominate, then the observed condition may be regarded as a potential.
If negative implications predominate, then the observed condition can be regarded as a problem. Formulate policies that either mitigate the inconvenience or solve the problem permanently.
