Jargonbuster launched

A new website providing clear and simple definitions of some of the key terms used in the voluntary sector has been launched by Charities Evaluation Services.  The terms focus on what organisations are doing and the difference their work is making.

Funders, commissioners and others often use concepts and terms from the language of planning, project management and performance improvement in different ways.  This has led to widespread confusion about what particular terms mean and how to use them most appropriately.

Jargonbuster is a free resource for third sector organisations, funders and government and regulatory bodies alike.  Not only is it a useful tool in making sure that everyone is speaking the same language, but it will also give organisations consistent information to help them to understand, plan, review and develop their projects in a systematic way and become more effective at what they do.
