More about this course
  • We want to provide you some information about our course "Measuring and Modeling Impact in evaluations". The purpose of this course is to give you a better understanding of different measures of impact that could be used in the evaluation of a program in the areas of maternal and child health and nutrition.
  • When we describe the methods, we also try to identify the strengths and weakness of the methods as well as their suitably for use in an evaluation.
  • The course also discusses how modeling can be used in evaluations as either a replacement for measuring impact or to supplement measured impact.
  • The last two lessons in this course focus on giving you an introduction and training on how the Lives Saved Tool (LiST) works and how to use it.
