No 583, Policy Research Working Paper Series from The World Bank

Abstract: As a follow up to the earlier review of research in education projects, this study inventories research in education projects, 1982 to 1989, and traces the completion status of studies that were incomplete before 1982. Data were collected on research volume, cost and the conditions under which research components yield accessible and useful information. This paper describes the strategy employed to identify the research components and studies. It presents findings with respect to: (i) the volume of studies and compares these results with the earlier study; (ii) the type of studies reported; and (iii) the budgeted cost of the studies. It also examines preconditions of study completion, using data from Staff Appraisal Reports (SARs) and interviews with selected Project Officers. The final section discusses the findings and draws conclusions.
