Grants to this Grantee
for general operating support
Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA) conducts randomized evaluations of development interventions, testing whether programs and policies achieve the target impact. It shares the evidence it creates with development practitioners, policymakers, and donors, seeking to influence decision makers to spend public resources more effectively. During this grant period, IPA will increase its policy footprint, including (a) developing coordinated sector-based global research agendas; (b) increasing the number of policy staff; and (c) strengthening long-term partnerships with governments.
