SUMMARY:Webinar: Measuring Impact Qualitatively
DESCRIPTION:Join a webinar on preliminary findings from a MEASURE E
 valuation research study entitled Measuring Impact Qualitatively. The
  one-hour webinar will take place Thursday, October 29, at 10:00 AM ED
 T. The study and the webinar aim to elicit discussion and share insigh
 ts regarding the role of qualitative methods in evaluative efforts to 
 understand and measure impact.\n\nThe impetus for the study came large
 ly from recognition that impact evaluations are increasingly a priorit
 y for USAID and other donors. The general goal for impact evaluations 
 is to map causal relationships, measure change over time, and attribut
 e that change. With such a goal, impact becomes largely a quantitative
  metric to compare projects and their intended outcomes as they relate
  to broader objectives around sustainable economic and social developm
 ent. More often than not, less emphasis is placed on considering impac
 t in qualitative terms—that is, through the perspectives of individu
 al beneficiaries, their specific experiences, and how those experience
 s might have changed over time. Such a focus can be important in accou
 nting for the ways “impact” is a subjective concept.\n\nThe Measur
 ing Impact Qualitatively study is led by Susan Pietrzyk with contribut
 ions from Reeti Hobson, Lwendo Moonzwe, and Debra Prosnitz. Over the c
 ourse of this past year, in reviewing USAID-funded and HIV/AIDS-relate
 d evaluations, the research team explored what a quantitative measure 
 of impact can tell us (and not tell us) while also thinking through th
 e ways evaluations often measure impact qualitatively.\n\nRegister to 
 attend the webinar.\n\n\nFor more information visit https://gendereval
