programme evaluation
A better world through better people-decisions
We help you to measure how projects, programmes and services are performing, assess whether your goals are being met, and help you find opportunities for learning and improvement
We can help you evaluate your policy or programme by:

| Helping to demonstrate causal inference. | |
| Interpreting results and helping you effectively communicate them to your stakeholders. |
We specialise in:
Randomised control trials
Difference in differences estimation

A – B testing
…and more
When it comes to custom evaluation, Anthro will:
| Help you choose the best design to evaluate your programme or policy. | |
|---|---|
| Determine the appropriate sample size, measure outcomes, and help manage your data. | |
| Use optimal techniques for the analysis and interpretation of results. | |
| Reduce threats that may undermine the integrity of your results. |
We received a substantial amount of funding to do capacity building in a specific global region to help promote certain health and educational outcomes. A year down the line, the donors wanted to know if our intervention had been effective and what the return on investment was. We turned to Anthro, who assigned an expert in programme evaluation to us. Using the latest advanced methods, our consultant worked with us to plan an assessment. He conducted it, analyzed the data, and presented a report to us. We knew that we were doing good impactful work and now we had the hard evidence to prove it. We sent the report to our donors and they were impressed that an outside third-party had given us such a positive review. I would highly recommend Anthro for your programme evaluation needs.
Implementing an intervention, I now know, it the easy part. Proving to stakeholders that it was money well spent is substantially more difficult. Our projects were getting challenged in committee meetings and it was becoming harder and harder to defend our work in the absence of robust evidence. We called on Anthro and they quickly got on it. They put together a proposal which would assess the effectiveness of our projects on multiple fronts. This resulted in a culmination of evidence that was simply irrefutable. Once they were done, we got a report that was stuffed with data in support of our work and that also showed how we could improve in the future. Once I shared it with relevant stakeholders, we were in the clear and were even offered additional funding. Anthro really took the pain out of doing our evaluation work and having a fresh pair of outside eyes really made all the difference.
