Independent Evaluation Laboratory​ | ​Promoting Evidence Based Intervention and Policy in Developing Countries

Bağımsız Etki Değerlendirme Laboratuvarı​ | ​Kanıta Dayalı Program ve Politikalar

​In our lab, using state-of-the-art methodology, we try to establish a long-term research agenda to promote evidence based-interventions and policies, especially in Turkey and the close region, by​

• Conducting rigorous impact evaluations to promote the dissemination of programs that are shown to be effective
• Producing the knowledge base to develop effective interventions and policies (e.g., using predictive modeling to determine the risk and protective factors influencing the targeted outcome)
• Conducting systematic reviews to create a catalog of evidence-based programs that can be adapted and transported to other countries
• Examining which program components work, which don’t, to ensure outcome- and cost-effective interventions (i.e., program optimization), and 
• Advancing the quantitative methodology.
