This book will guide the reader through both the basic and more advanced methods of impact evaluation, with a particular focus on impact evaluation within evidence-based policy making and in international development. The chapters provide a theoretical discussion of the various topics related to impact evaluation, complemented with exercises, case studies and worked examples drawn from the international development literature. Iconic impact evaluation studies will be used to exemplify the challenges of development impact evaluations.

Maren Duvendack is a development economist with expertise in quantitative impact evaluation methodologies and applied econometrics. She is a Research Fellow in the RAPID team at the Overseas Development Institute (ODI), UK, and was previously a Postdoctoral Fellow at the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) in Washington DC. Maren is also a part-time lecturer in development economics at UEA, UK where she is involved in the MSc in Impact Evaluation for International Development. Richard Palmer-Jones is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of East Anglia, UK. His work draws on an economics and agriculture background with interests in poverty and inequality, well-being, nutrition, health, education, agriculture, irrigation and natural resources. He has been involved in many evaluations of development interventions, several impact evaluations and replications of development research. Laura Camfield is a Lecturer in International Development at the University of East Anglia, UK. She trained as an anthropologist, but now works collaboratively using qualitative and quantitative methods and training others in their use, most recently with the DFID-funded Young Lives longitudinal research study in Ethiopia. At UEA she convenes the main research training module for postgraduates and teaches on courses in impact evaluation, social development, and ethnography.
