    Abstract: Este libro pretende ser una introduccion accesible al tema de la evaluacion de impacto y a como aplicarla al ambito del desarrollo. Este tipo de evaluaciones sirve para determinar si un programa ha logrado o no los resultados previstos, y para explorar si existen estrategias alternativas con las que alcanzar mejor dichos resultados. El manual, que ofrece una introduccion no tecnica al tema, esta estructurado en tres partes: en la primera se explica que significa evaluar el impacto de los programas de desarrollo y por que es importante; la segunda parte se centra en como evaluar; en la tercera parte se aborda la cuestion de como implementar una evaluacion. Estos elementos constituyen los elementos basicos necesarios para llevar a cabo una evaluacion de impacto. La intencion es aproximarse al tema principalmente a partir de la intuicion, por lo que se ha minimizado la terminologia tecnica. Se ofrece al lector una serie de herramientas basicas de evaluacion (los conceptos y los metodos fundamentales) y se analiza su aplicacion a programas de desarrollo del mundo real

    Parallel Title: Erscheint auch als Gatzinsi, Justine How Household Characteristics Shape Program Access and Asset Accumulation: A Mixed Method Analysis of the Vision 2020 Umurenge Programme in Rwanda
    Keywords: Graue Literatur
    Abstract: This paper assesses how household context and characteristics shape the welfare trajectory and more specifically the accumulation of productive assets among beneficiaries of the Vision 2020 Umurenge Programme in Rwanda, the government's flagship social assistance program. The analysis is based on a unique data set combining panel household survey data with in-depth qualitative interviews of a subsample of male and female beneficiaries from the survey data collected between 2009 and 2015. By combining quantitative and qualitative information, the paper draws a more nuanced picture of how household characteristics-structural and temporal-contextualize opportunities for poor men and women and their households and shape how well they can leverage access to the Vision 2020 Umurenge Programme to accumulate productive assets. The mixed method analysis reveals that household composition, gender power dynamics, disability, care responsibilities, marital arrangements, intrahousehold communication, and access to other social programs and institutions play a crucial role in access to the Vision 2020 Umurenge Programme and related asset accumulation. The findings suggest that households would benefit from a broader definition of the eligibility criteria and the availability of flexible and complementary programming, to reap the benefits of the income transfer received from the program

    Abstract: Over the last decade, Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) programs have become one of the most widely adopted anti-poverty initiatives in the developing world. Inspired particularly by Mexico's successful program, CCTs are viewed as an effective way to provide basic income support while building children's human capital. These programs have had a remarkable global expansion, from a handful programs in the late 1990s to programs in close to 30 countries today, including a demonstration program in the United States. In contrast to many other safety net programs in developing countries, CCTs have been closely studied and well evaluated, creating both a strong evidence base from which to inform policy decisions and an active global community of practice. This paper first reviews the emergence of CCTs in the context of a key theme in welfare reform, notably using incentives to promote human capital development, going beyond the traditional focus on income support. The paper then examines what has been learned to date from the experience with CCTs in the South and raises a series of questions concerning the relevance and replicability of these lessons in other contexts. The paper concludes with a call for further knowledge sharing in two areas: between the North and South as the experience with welfare reform and CCTs in particular expands, and between behavioral science and welfare policy

    Abstract: Ce manuel constitue une introduction accessible a l'evaluation d'impact et a sa pratique dans le domaine du developpement. Il est principalement destine aux professionnels du developpement et aux decideurs, mais peut egalement etre utile aux etudiants et a toute personne interessee a l'evaluation d'impact. Les evaluations d'impact prospectives visent a determiner si un programme a atteint ou non les resultats esperes ou a tester differentes strategies pour atteindre ces resultats. Ce rapport considere qu'une augmentation du nombre d'evaluations et une amelioration de leur qualite permettront de renforcer l'ensemble des preuves existantes au sujet de l'efficacite des politiques et programmes de developpement dans le monde. L'espoir est que les gouvernements et les professionnels du developpement puissent prendre des decisions fondees sur des resultats eprouves, tels que les preuves generees par les evaluations d'impact, de maniere a rendre plus efficace l'utilisation des ressources pour reduire la pauvrete et ameliorer le bien-etre des populations. Les trois parties du manuel constituent une introduction non technique a l'evaluation d'impact. Elles decrivent ce qu'il convient d'evaluer et pourquoi (partie 1) ; exposent des methodes d'evaluation (partie 2) ; et indiquent comment mettre en cuvre une evaluation (partie 3). Ces etapes constituent des elements essentiels a la realisation d'une evaluation d'impact. L'approche de l'evaluation d'impact dans ce manuel est largement intuitive et essaie de minimiser les aspects techniques. Ce rapport presente au lecteur une gamme d'outils d'evaluation d'impact et illustre leur application a de reels programmes de developpement

    Abstract: This paper evaluates the effects of interventions based on behavioral science on measures of early childhood socio-cognitive development (and related household-level outcomes) for children from households receiving cash transfers in Madagascar, using a multi-arm cluster-randomized trial. Three behavioral interventions (a Mother Leaders group and associated activities, by itself or augmented with a self-affirmation or a plan-making nudge) are layered onto a child-focused cash transfer program targeting children from birth to age six years. Approximately 18 months into the implementation of these interventions and 20 months since baseline, the study finds evidence that households in the behaviorally enhanced arms undertake more desirable parenting behaviors, interact more with their children, prepare more (and more diverse) meals at home, and report lower food insecurity than households that received only cash. Children from households in several of the behaviorally enhanced arms also perform better than children from households in the cash-only arm on several measures of socio-cognitive development, including language learning and social skills
