Working with complexity: Six steps to enhance researchODI_Webmaster
John Young's presentation at the GDN workshop on 'Maximizing the Impact of Agricultural Research in Africa' held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in October 2008. In his talk, he outlines how organisations can work within complex policy processes to achieve impact and expands on several tools that can be used as part of this process.
This document discusses research uptake strategies presented by Farah Ahmed at a conference in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It defines research uptake as the effective use of research evidence by decision-makers to improve policy and development outcomes. An effective uptake strategy involves stakeholder engagement, capacity building, communications, and monitoring and evaluation. It should have clear objectives, identify target audiences, and determine how to communicate research findings. The document provides examples of uptake approaches like partnerships, stakeholder mapping, and developing communication products tailored to specific audiences. It also discusses barriers to uptake like institutional policies and leadership, and questions to consider around stakeholder engagement, capacity building, communications planning, and monitoring impact.
This document provides a roadmap for building an effective environmental employee engagement program. It outlines a four-phase approach:
1) Define clear business goals and metrics to measure success.
2) Get employees engaged by motivating them to complete measurable environmental tasks.
3) Harness engaged employees' enthusiasm to recruit others and achieve greater results.
4) Build executive support, identify champions, and integrate the program with HR to impact company culture.
The roadmap translates engagement into getting employees excited to "board the bus" of the program and then ask others to join. It aims to demonstrate business benefits, engage all employees, and transform many into environmental leaders both at work and beyond.
The document discusses the development of a monitoring and evaluation (M&E) strategy for PRISE, a research consortium working in East Africa, West Africa, and Central/South Asia. It outlines five key monitoring areas for PRISE: 1) strategy and direction, 2) management, 3) outputs, 4) uptake and outcomes, and 5) context. For each area, it identifies key evaluation questions and discusses challenges in implementing the M&E strategy, such as defining outcomes and distributing monitoring responsibilities across partners and levels.
The document outlines a process for practical stakeholder engagement. It discusses identifying stakeholders and their viewpoints, bringing stakeholders onboard through intake, and consulting with stakeholders. Theoretical models of systems and stakeholders are presented. Stakeholder identification involves finding viewpoints, types, and roles. Stakeholder intake aims to create commitment and arrange participation. Stakeholder consultation considers psychological factors like using positive language. Governance involves project boards and architecture boards.

This document discusses alternative approaches to behavior change programs in complex environments. It emphasizes the importance of engagement, listening, and adapting to feedback. Key points discussed include:
- Programs should focus on applying various data sources, including information that is often overlooked but important for understanding community perspectives.
- Engaging community members in data collection can provide both qualitative and quantitative data on behaviors and experiences with the intervention. This requires strategies to relay this data back to the project team.
- While data collection has costs, integrating audience feedback directly into planning and implementation can deepen engagement at a lower cost. Flexibility is important to allow for quick adjustments.
- Possible adjustments based on feedback include modifying messages, messengers

This document discusses perspectives on getting research into use from the Research and Policy in Development program at ODI. It notes that policymakers find research evidence difficult to use due to speed, superficiality, spin, secrecy, and scientific ignorance. Evidence is also just one factor among others that influence policy. The document outlines various knowledge strategies organizations can use to increase research impact, from simply disseminating information to deeply collaborating. It emphasizes understanding the political and social context, building stakeholder relationships and capacity, and being explicit about theories of change. Achieving greater research use may require new skills, focus, incentives, business models, and organizational change.
Data Placemats: Construction and Practical Design TipsInnovation Network
Increasing stakeholder involvement throughout the evaluation lifecycle, not only enhances stakeholder buy-in to the final evaluation results, but it also ensures that the evaluator is taking into consideration multiple viewpoints to be able to provide a more comprehensive picture of a program or initiative. Data placemats, a data viz technique to improve stakeholder understanding of data, can be used to communicate preliminary evaluation results during the analysis phase of the evaluation life cycle. When done correctly, it offers stakeholders an opportunity to form their own judgments about the data and weigh in prior to the final report. In this session, the presenter will review the concept of data placemats, focusing specifically on the nuts and bolts of constructing a data placemat.

Impact Evaluation Step by Step Evaluating the Impact of Formality_GRADEthinktankinitiative
This document summarizes a study that evaluated the impact of formality on micro enterprise performance in Lima, Peru. The study used an encouragement design where 300 micro enterprises were randomly selected to receive an incentive to obtain an operating license, while the remaining 304 firms served as the comparison group. Surveys were conducted with all firms at baseline and over two and a half years to measure outcomes. The results found that operating with a municipal license had no statistically significant effect on firm performance measures like revenues, profits, employment levels, or access to credit. This suggests that simply providing licenses may not be enough to improve firm performance, and that formalization programs require a broader scope. The findings provide relevant evidence for policymakers on the limited impacts of

Why assess coalition capacity? How should a coalition be assessed? How can coalition assessment data be analyzed and used?
Coalitions are an important tool in the advocacy and policy change toolbox. They can be used to promote an issue, increase visibility, and eventually propel an issue to the forefront of a political or social agenda. They can provide a lot of horsepower—harnessing the combined power and expertise of many entities all at once. And they are a valuable technique for crafting more durable solutions generated by a broad constituency. For all of these reasons, developing and strengthening coalitions is a common strategy among advocates and advocacy funders.
For evaluators, coalition assessment is a growing field of experimentation and learning. Innovation Network has been evaluating coalitions since 2006, beginning with the Coalition for Comprehensive Immigration Reform, a national effort to secure passage by the U.S. Congress for comprehensive immigration reform. Over the years, we have evaluated many different types of coalitions throughout the United States. Our coalition partners have worked at national, state, regional, and local levels on a variety of advocacy and policy change goals, such as healthy community design or childhood nutrition. This white paper provides practitioners and funders with insights into the coalition assessment process along with concrete examples and lessons we’ve learned from our own work.

Issues management involves monitoring potential issues, analyzing risks and opportunities they present, understanding stakeholder perspectives, and developing strategies to address issues before they become crises. Key aspects of issues management include conducting environmental scans, using analytical tools to evaluate issues, researching stakeholders, monitoring the issue lifecycle, and employing techniques like media programs, masterly inaction, and stakeholder analysis. While there is no perfect system, issues management aims to continually align organizational strategy with external realities in order to bring external perspectives inside the organization and proactively address issues.
Refreshing Evaluation in Support of the Social Movements RevivalInnovation Network
There is a growing social consciousness in America and a revival of using social movements as a vehicle for social change—with increasing nonprofit involvement and philanthropic funding support. Since the mid-2000’s there have been several notable movements that have taken hold of the public consciousness: the immigration reform movement and DREAMers, The Occupy Movement, Gay Marriage, climate change movement, Black Lives Matter, and a nascent, potential movement developing in protest of the Trump Administration. While evaluating movements has some parallels to established evaluation practice, it also represents some thorny challenges. In a session presented at the American Evaluation Association Conference on November 10, 2017, we explore and share what we are learning about evaluating social movements, including: what we know about social movements, their components, characteristics, and types; what aspects of social movements are ripe for evaluation; and what existing evaluation approaches are well suited to evaluating social movements.
Engaging stakeholders is important for effective climate adaptation for several reasons:
1) Climate adaptation requires making changes that are judged based on both climate impacts and other social and economic factors, which benefits from input from a variety of stakeholders.
2) Implementing adaptation measures often requires collaboration between different groups, mandates, resources, and expertise that are not concentrated in any single entity.
3) Involving stakeholders in the process can increase acceptance of changes and support for adaptation.
Stakeholder engagement may be beneficial at different stages of the adaptation process, including problem identification and analysis, planning interventions, implementation, and evaluation. The stakeholders engaged will depend on the issue and may include social groups, organizations, professionals,
This is a 20-slides-in-20-minutes presentation (pecha kucha) about frameworks for evaluation of impact of Knowledge Mobilization or Knowledge Translation. The Co-Produced Pathway to Impact (CPPI) provides a framework for evaluation of impact from research to impact including dissemination, uptake, and implementation stages.
This document provides an overview of evaluation, including its benefits, key stages, and approaches. It discusses:
- The purpose of evaluation is to objectively understand the implementation and effects of a policy or intervention.
- Benefits include improving practice, supporting future investment, and providing accountability.
- There are three main types of evaluation: process, impact, and economic. Impact evaluation determines changes caused by the policy.
- Important factors in choosing an evaluation approach include the policy's objectives, timing, expected impacts, and available resources.
- Main stages include defining objectives, identifying questions, selecting the approach, collecting data, and disseminating findings.

Igniting User-Centered Design Thinking at DOE: Challenges and Lessons LearnedUXPA DC
The document discusses challenges and lessons learned in institutionalizing user-centered design (UCD) at the Department of Energy (DOE). It provides seven tips for successfully adopting UCD within an organization: 1) Understand the organization's stability, motivation, and openness to change; 2) Identify a champion to show UCD's value and direct resources; 3) Use "wake-up calls" like product failures to gain support; 4) Partner with a UX consultant for expertise and guidance; 5) Grow UCD top-down and bottom-up within the organization; 6) Raise awareness before establishing strict rules; and 7) Put infrastructure like training, standards, and testing facilities in place. The overall message
The document discusses developing a research agenda for impact evaluation of development programs. It proposes that the agenda should:
1) Cover different types and purposes of evaluations, questions addressed, users, and those conducting evaluations.
2) Be developed through consultation with various stakeholders and review of existing documentation and examples.
3) Include different types of research like documenting current practices, trials of methods, and longitudinal studies of impact evaluations.
4) Address important questions like how to involve communities and accommodate different views of evidence, and how to represent complex interventions and identify unintended impacts. Support is needed to develop the agenda through legitimate processes and interdisciplinary cooperation.
This document summarizes research on conceptualizing the influence of lead users and opinion leaders on accelerating the rate of innovation diffusion. The research aims to (1) evaluate how leading-edge opinion leaders influence diffusion rates, (2) measure their brand switching and price premium propensities, and (3) characterize this new adopter category. Through two studies, the researchers find that leading-edge opinion leaders are more likely than other groups to adopt radical innovations, spread positive word-of-mouth, and pay premium prices. This new hybrid category may help diffuse radical products faster than traditional models suggest.
This document discusses stakeholder analysis, which is an important component of logical framework analysis for project identification and selection. It defines stakeholders as individuals or groups that can affect or be affected by a project. The key steps in stakeholder analysis are: 1) Identifying relevant stakeholders, categorizing them as primary, secondary or external. 2) Analyzing their roles, interests, power and ability to participate. 3) Assessing cooperation and conflicts among stakeholders. 4) Incorporating findings into project design. Stakeholder participation is important and brings benefits like empowerment, but must be implemented carefully through consultation rather than coercion.
Does the field of user-centered design mystify you? Does user research seem like the last thing you have time to think about?
Any team can look at analytics to understand what users are doing and how often they’re doing it. What analytics won’t tell you is *why* users are doing certain things — sometimes you need more context. That’s where user research comes in. This session will map out a framework for incorporating user research into your development cycle.
These are detailed notes from the visit at the Copenhagen's Danish Design Centre, which had on display a very informative exhibition on a model for a design-driven innovation, developed by the Danish Design Centre.
Design-driven Innovation (DIN) is a tool for developing better responses to complex challenges while ensuring implementation through a design-driven approach.
I was interested in the potential of this model for designing public communication.

Design Thinking for Managers - Presentationranganayaki10
Design thinking is a human-centered approach to problem solving that involves understanding user needs through methods like empathy and observation. It defines problems from the user's perspective then generates creative solutions. Key aspects include empathizing with users through interviews and observation to define problems, ideating multiple solutions, and prototyping and testing ideas with users in an iterative process. This document outlines the design thinking process and common methods used at each stage to develop solutions that meet user needs.

User-centered design is an approach that focuses on putting users at the center of the product design and development process. It involves users from the beginning and throughout the design cycle, gathering feedback to continually improve the user experience. The key principles include clarifying requirements based on user needs, collecting ongoing user feedback, and taking an iterative design approach. Personas are created to represent different types of users and help guide the design and ideation process by stepping into the user's perspective. There are different types of personas like goal-directed, role-based, and fictional personas.

This document discusses institutionalizing water accounting in order to better manage water resources. It provides an overview of the International Water Management Institute (IWMI), which conducts research on innovative water solutions. Water scarcity is a growing challenge in many regions. Water accounting can help fill information gaps and support decision making by regularly reporting on water availability, use, rights, and changes over time. It discusses elements like temporal and spatial scales to consider. The benefits of water accounting include increased transparency, comparable data to guide policies, and improved awareness. Institutionalizing water accounting requires establishing purposes, data sources, stakeholders, and aligning with existing policies and plans. It is a collective effort that can help answer key questions about water management and allocation.

Evolving Lifecycles with High Resolution Site Characterization (HRSC) and 3-D...Joshua Orris
The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.
