Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: Development projects do not continue for infinite duration. Funding and implementing agencies withdraw from the program area after a certain point of time. Phasing out of programs is a critical phase fraught with several challenges. Most of the agencies and donors do not have a mandate for post-project evaluations and therefore commit little or no funds for post-project evaluations. Post-project evaluation examines if the project has led to sustainable outcomes and practices in the community. The paper outlines relevant case studies and explores challenges associated with post-project evaluations. It proposes a framework to address the envisioned objectives of post-project evaluation encapsulating sustainability of Community, Resources, Institutional and Processes (CRISP). It further suggests Difference-In-Difference research design for conducting post-project evaluation. [Discussion Paper No. 2]
