Suggested Approaches to Conduct Impact Assessment Without a Baseline Data

Priya Anand posted a query (https://gendereval.ning.com/forum/topics/impact-assessment-without-...) on 28th September 2015 regarding approaches to conduct impact assessment without a baseline data. A team of three people namely Sirjan Adhikari (Nepal), Solomon Bizualem (Ethiopia) and  Ugwuibe Ted C (Nigeria) has summarized the suggested approaches to make a combined references.
