4.  Selecting an appropriate method for your evaluation

This webinar will help you to select the best methods for your own evaluations and increase your confidence in your results.

We focus on evidencing causality through your evaluation and share our learning on running an RCT.

It identifies the things you need to include in the write-up of your findings, particularly if you would like your work to be included in the Toolkit in the future, and provides tips on ‘dos and don’ts’ when presenting data.
