Our approach
Our evaluation studies follow a comprehensive framework to holistically assess an intervention. The behaviour change introduced or instilled by an intervention is evaluated through the Behaviour Change Framework developed by Social Lens. The basic assessment framework is based on the OECD DAC evaluation criteria that includes:
The contextual background of the intervention/need in the targeted communities
The synergies, interlinkages and overlaps with other similar interventions
The extent of the intervention's completion of the intended objectives and targets
The extent of resource optimisation in the program structure and delivery
The short-term, long-term, positive and negative effects generated by the intervention
The extent to which the intervention benefits are expected to continue post exit
Social Lens is a mission-driven consulting firm that provides a comprehensive suite of management consulting services to boost the mission of Social Impact organisations and maximise the returns of philanthropic investors in the social sector.
