Evaluation Design

Our Approach

Designing an effective program evaluation involves understanding your objectives, stakeholders, and context. Our approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and focused on delivering practical results.

Our Evaluation Design Process Includes:

  • Needs Assessment: Understanding your program’s goals, challenges, and context to identify key evaluation questions.

  • Stakeholder Engagement: Collaborating with stakeholders to ensure the evaluation design aligns with their needs and expectations.

  • Logic Model Development: Creating a visual representation of your program's inputs, activities, outputs, and outcomes to guide the evaluation.

  • Evaluation Framework: Developing a structured plan that outlines the evaluation's purpose, questions, methodology, and data sources.

  • Indicator Selection: Identifying quantitative and qualitative indicators to measure program performance and impact.

  • Ethical Considerations: Ensuring that the evaluation design adheres to ethical standards and respects the rights and confidentiality of participants.

Types of Evaluation Designs

We offer a range of evaluation designs to suit different program stages and needs:

  • Formative Evaluation: Conducted during program development or early implementation to refine program design and improve effectiveness.

  • Process Evaluation: Examines the implementation process, providing insights into how the program is being delivered and identifying areas for improvement.

  • Outcome Evaluation: Measures the short-term and long-term outcomes of the program to assess its effectiveness in achieving its goals.

  • Impact Evaluation: Evaluates the broader, long-term effects of the program on the target population and community.

  • Developmental Evaluation: Supports innovative programs by providing real-time feedback to adapt and evolve during implementation.
