The World Bank has set up a new trust fund called “The Strategic Impact Evaluation Fund” (SIEF) with the support of the UK Government’s Department for International Development (DFID). The purpose of the Fund is to carry out and support research evaluating the impact of programs on alleviating poverty and improving people’s lives. The knowledge generated will provide evidence for designing more effective policies and programs.
The SIEF aims to improve the effectiveness of development policies by expanding the evidence base on the impact of scalable programs affecting human development outcomes.
Under this first call for proposals will focus on four thematic research clusters chosen for their strategic policy relevance: (i) early childhood nutrition, health and development; (ii) water supply, sanitation, and hygiene linked to human development outcomes; (iii) basic education service delivery; and (iv) health systems and service delivery. Within these research areas a range of program types are welcome, including cash transfer programs and programs supporting multiple interventions. Through these thematic clusters, the program will generate cross-country evidence on how programs work in different contexts.
Countries classified as low, lower-middle, and upper-middle income are eligible.
The deadline to submit the proposals is 4 June 2012. For more information, visit this link.

The impact of the strategic impact evaluation fund will only be fruitful if there really is a problem where to start with. Other problems are just offshoots of one or two unsolved problems. Once the main problem is identified and solutions provided with other consequential problems will just disappear. So identification of the root of all these problems is very crucial for succeeding programs to be effective and wastes of scarce funds will be minimized.
I am interested to participate in this very noble endeavor.
Wishing other participants success for I believe that “The essence of man’s existence is his contributions towards uplifting the living condition of mankind. God bless us all.

In Kemya and the 3rd world countries Cotton Production has been a major challenge. With great potentials in the longest value chain, string of stakeholders and multitude of beneficiaries. Properly handled with policies, structures, institutions and information, The Cotton sector can lift a country/county from poverty to smiles. With years of legislation and policy change here and there this is not happening.
I must say your initiative is a great one to say the least. We at Information Technology Foundation (ITF) of Ghana look forward to partner with you for a collaborative effort in empowering urban poor and rural Girls/Young Women in the area of ICT as we seek compliment Government’s effort to meet the Millennium Development Goals in the field of making both theory and practical ICT education a reality.

The force behind this impact evaluation through research deserves some applause as its vital to really analyze where we start, go to and ending. In Kenya is the free Primary Education that has been really encountering lots of problems and it is worth carrying out an impact evaluation of the programme
Thanks to the team behind this innovation.

IT IS A WELL COME IDEAL
The strategic impact evaluation in terms of research is very essential to assess what has been done and what ought to be done to filling the gap. CODISO as an organization would like to carry out research evaluation on Secondary education program in Tanzania (SEDEP)implementation. Yes, following the establishment of the programme, there have been mushrooming schools of such nature in context of infrastructure (buildings) BUT there are abundant of challenges to attain the intended goal/objectives of Millennium Goals.
