CDD impact evaluation review and operational and research implications (Wong 2012), which synthesizes the impact evaluation results of seventeen World Bank CDD programs over the past twenty five years. The study finds that, on the whole, these projects achieved their stated goals of poverty welfare reduction, poverty targeting, and increased access to services.
