Title
Sample criteria to select case studies for evaluation
Abstract
Time and budget constraints often mean that organisations are unable to evaluate all of their programmes,
and large programmes, operating in multiple locations, are unable to evaluate all project sites. This tool
introduces two sets of criteria to support evaluators and programme managers to select case studies or
programmes for evaluation: i) information about how relevant or feasible evaluation is for individual
programmes, and ii) across the overall portfolio, strategic thinking around what types of cases are most
important to understand. This tool was developed by Anne Buffardi, Irene Guijt, Simon Hearn and Tiina
Pasanen for use in The Methods Lab projects.
