Virtual Class Visit: "How Do You Evaluate the Effectiveness of Aid?"

Tuesday, June 4, 2024
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM Eastern Standard Time
Status: Space Available
Location: Online

Description:
SIS Virtual Class Visits offer students an opportunity to attend a simulated SIS graduate class featuring a substantive course lecture and follow-up discussion.

Billions of dollars are spent on development aid each year but how do we know that this actually leads to changes on the ground? Join SIS professor Stefanie Onder for this session that examines how to understand and improve the effectiveness of interventions aiming to bring about behavioral, socioeconomic, or political change. Students will gain a nuanced understanding of what an impact evaluation is, and what the key conceptual implementation challenges are, when evaluating, for example, a real-life World Bank project.
