However, their recent proliferation should not overshadow qualitative approaches being developed for achieving the same. Africa is experiencing a wave of RCTs as evidenced by an increased number of studies and trainings accros the continent on the topic. This AfCoP-AfriK4R case study was developed based on a review of published works. It builds on existing publications on the potential role of qualitative methods in the field of impact evaluation. The main objective of the paper is to reflect on the potential role of qualitative methods in analyzing causal claims when assessing development interventions. | | Détenteur du copyright | African Community of Practice (AfCoP) | | Copyright URL | http://www.acbf-pact.org | | Taille du fichier | 631550 MB | | Format du fichier | PDF | | [ Voir/télécharger document ] |
