Impact assessment is a critical tool for understanding whether development programmes are achieving their intended outcomes. As the demand for evidence-based programming grows, organisations need robust approaches to measuring and demonstrating impact.
Choosing the Right Methodology
The choice of impact assessment methodology should be guided by your evaluation questions, available resources, and the nature of your intervention. Options range from experimental designs (RCTs) to quasi-experimental approaches and qualitative methods.
Mixed Methods Approach
We recommend a mixed methods approach that combines quantitative data on outcomes with qualitative insights on processes and experiences. This provides a comprehensive picture of programme impact and helps explain the how and why behind the numbers.
