When to do a rigorous impact evaluation?
Rigorous impact evaluations (RIE) are great in showing what the causal impact of an intervention is. But before conducting an RIE, you need to clarify if and when an RIE is actually the best choice.
Based on an empirical research project, we developed a user-friendly RIE guidance tool for decision makers at both project and policy level. To help you answer the question: Should you do an RIE or not?
In three steps you can find out what the key questions are and what additional information you may need to gather in order to make a decision.
