Handbook on impact evaluation quantitative methods and practices
Evaluation approaches for development programs have evolved considerably over the past two decades, spurred on by rapidly expanding research on impact evaluation and growing coordination across different research and policy institutions in designing programs. Comparing program effects across different regions and countries is also receiving greater attention, as programs target larger populations and become more ambitious in scope, and researchers acquire enough data to be able to test specifi c policy questions across localities. This progress, however, comes with new empirical and practical challenges.
