No results found.This article represents the background document to the FAO moderated e-mail conference entitled “Approaches and methodologies in ex post impact assessment of agricultural research: Experiences, lessons learned and perspectives” which begins 5 May 2014. The document’s aim is to provide an easily understandable introduction and brief overview to the approaches and methodologies used in ex post impact assessment (epIA) of agricultural research. The document begins with an introduction to the genera l area of evaluation and then narrows down to epIA, one component of the whole evaluation package. It proceeds to describing the main approaches and methodologies used for carrying out epIA of agricultural research. These are classified into two broad groups: macro-level assessments looking, for example, at the impacts of agricultural research at the regional or national level and micro-level assessments, looking at the impacts of specific research-derived interventions. The document also briefl y considers the issue of how the epIA results are communicated to donors and policy-makers and how they subsequently use them. It concludes with a series of questions which participants are asked to address during the conference. After the conference, a summary document will be published, synthesizing the main issues discussed during the conference.
