Grants to this Grantee
for the development of an approach to understand and measure the impact of learning networks
Results for Development (R4D) contributes to social and economic development across the world by collaborating with change agents around the world — government officials, civil society leaders and social innovators — to create strong systems that support healthy, educated people. This organizational effectiveness grant will allow R4D to enhance their capacity to measure, learn from, and adapt their initiatives.
for dissemination activities related to QEDC evaluations
This grant to Results for Development Institute would enable them to translate the findings from evaluations of interventions in early-grade literacy and numeracy into actionable lessons and tools for practitioners, policymakers, donors, advocates, and researchers.
for the Transparency and Accountability Program
The Population Program's recent advocacy efforts have focused on addressing inefficient and ineffective uses of funding for reproductive health, including the lack of transparency and accountability in budgeting and expenditures at the country level. This contribution to the Transparency and Accountability Program will allow it to select about two organizations per year with particular interest in addressing issues ranging from supplies stockouts to staff absenteeism in the reproductive health sector. TAP will provide the organizations with technical assistance on using specific methodologies such as expenditure tracking studies to generate evidence for advocacy. This collaborative grant with Global Development helps to illustrate potential synergies in the integrated program, and the possibilities for sector-specific applications of Global Development's transparency and accountability work. Please refer to Global Development's docket for more information about this grant.
