dc.description.abstractThe Impact Evaluation in Practice handbook is a comprehensive and accessible introduction to impact evaluation for policymakers and development practitioners. The book incorporates real-world examples to present practical guidelines for designing and implementing evaluations. Readers will gain an understanding of the uses of impact evaluation and the best ways to use evaluations to design policies and programs that are based on evidence of what works most effectively. The handbook is divided into three sections: Part One discusses what to evaluate and why; Part Two outlines the theoretical underpinnings of impact evaluation; and Part Three examines how to implement an evaluation. Case studies illustrate different methods for carrying out impact evaluations.en
dc.description.abstractEste libro pretende ser una introducción accesible al tema de la evaluación de impacto y a cómo aplicarla al ámbito 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 introducción no técnica al tema, está estructurado en tres partes: en la primera se explica qué significa evaluar el impacto de los programas de desarrollo y por qué es importante; la segunda parte se centra en cómo evaluar; en la tercera parte se aborda la cuestión de cómo implementar una evaluación. Estos elementos constituyen los elementos básicos necesarios para llevar a cabo una evaluación de impacto. La intención es aproximarse al tema principalmente a partir de la intuición, por lo que se ha minimizado la terminología técnica. Se ofrece al lector una serie de herramientas básicas de evaluación (los conceptos y los métodos fundamentales) y se analiza su aplicación a programas de desarrollo del mundo real.es
dc.description.abstractCe manuel constitue une introduction accessible à l’évaluation d’impact et à sa pratique dans le domaine du développement. Il est principalement destiné aux professionnels du développement et aux décideurs, mais peut également être utile aux étudiants et à toute personne intéressée à l’évaluation d’impact. Les évaluations d’impact prospectives visent à déterminer si un programme a atteint ou non les résultats espérés ou à tester différentes stratégies pour atteindre ces résultats. Ce rapport considère qu’une augmentation du nombre d’évaluations et une amélioration de leur qualité permettront de renforcer l’ensemble des preuves existantes au sujet de l’efficacité des politiques et programmes de développement dans le monde. L’espoir est que les gouvernements et les professionnels du développement puissent prendre des décisions fondées sur des résultats éprouvés, tels que les preuves générées par les évaluations d’impact, de manière à rendre plus efficace l’utilisation des ressources pour réduire la pauvreté et améliorer le bien-être des populations. Les trois parties du manuel constituent une introduction non technique à l’évaluation d’impact. Elles décrivent ce qu’il convient d’évaluer et pourquoi (partie 1) ; exposent des méthodes d’évaluation (partie 2) ; et indiquent comment mettre en œuvre une évaluation (partie 3). Ces étapes constituent des éléments essentiels à la réalisation d’une évaluation d’impact. L’approche de l’évaluation d’impact dans ce manuel est largement intuitive et essaie de minimiser les aspects techniques. Ce rapport présente au lecteur une gamme d’outils d’évaluation d’impact et illustre leur application à de réels programmes de développement.fr
