From experimental findings to evidence-based policy

Philipp Krause and Gonzalo Hernández Licona

World Development, 2020, vol. 127, issue C

Abstract: The promise of experimental approaches to help reduce poverty depends on the impact they have on policy and implementation. That makes it important to consider how institutional mechanisms and government structures translate findings into policy, or not. We look at each stage of the policy cycle and discuss how experimental findings could change the evidence use in policymaking for poverty reduction. We also discuss the role of experimental evidence in the design of a broader evaluation system.
