Note: Watch the How to design and deliver successful GBA Plus training video before using this template to develop your case study.

Cautions

• Don’t provide extraneous information. Include enough detail for the learner to be able to solve the problem presented in the case study, but do not overload with too much detail.
• Don’t make the solution too obvious.
• Make sure you have permission to use any information and data you include.

Issue

Task

Create a short description of the task – try to keep to one sentence and focus on one question.

For the purpose of this training, you are the working group assigned to conduct the GBA Plus on the […]

Background

Define the context (who, what, when, where, why), key players / decision-makers, data, stakeholder analysis, public environment, and any other information that might help to inform the GBA Plus.

It is important to complete a GBA Plus of the case study in order to provide the facilitator guidance in prompting participants. Participants are likely to generate further ideas and analysis which can be added to the facilitator guide.

Use the Demystifying GBA Plus job aid to guide and document your GBA Plus.
