The first two 3ie working papers are now available:
Working Paper No. 1, Reflections on some current debates in impact evaluation, by Howard White reviews some of the criticisms commonly leveled at quantitative approaches to impact evaluation, arguing that many are based on mis-conceptions; and
Working Paper No. 2, Better Evidence for a Better World, edited by Mark Lipsey and Eamonn Noonan (produced jointly with The Campbell Collaboration) reviews the need for, and uses of, evidence in various fields of social policy.
