The Digital Leaky Bucket<br />

(Source: Coady Institute)<br />

Introduction<br />

Some facilitators like keeping the Leaky Bucket simple by identifying income and expenditures in a<br />

general way. Others have found that quantifying inflows and outflows creates a real “aha” moment for<br />

participants pants and makes it easier to see opportunities for increasing income and decreasing expenditures.<br />

As a result, the Coady Institute has developed a digital version <strong>of</strong> the Leaky Bucket to complement those<br />

drawn on flip chart paper. It has also been a used to help households do their annual and seasonal<br />

budgeting and as a baseline collection tool to track changes in household economies over time. Finally,<br />

the digital leaky bucket can also be used to as a way to help communities think through their action<br />

plans.<br />
