EGAP Learning Days 11
Organized by Evidence in Governance and Politics (EGAP)
in association with
African School of Economics (ASE)
June 10-14, 2019
Abomey-Calavi & Cotonou, Benin

The workshop will instruct on concepts and tools for experimental impact evaluations, and will include presentations of experimental research, statistical exercises (with and without statistical software), and individual advisory sessions for participants to work on developing research designs related to their organizations’ missions. Key topics include causal inference, hypothesis testing, randomization, power, and more. Accepted applicants will be expected to complete a preparatory exercise before arriving for the clinic.
As part of the workshop, EGAP will also host a half-day evidence seminar on June 13 at the Golden Tulip le Diplomate Cotonou. This event will bring together Learning Days particpants (with a focus towards those who are representatives of government and civil society organizations) with EGAP researchers who have a focus on experimental methods and policy-relevant research and evaluation.
EGAP will cover the financial costs of airfare to and from the workshop location, lodging (for attendees from outside Cotonou), breakfast/lunch/snacks at the clinic and workshop, and a celebratory dinner. Participants are responsible for other dinners, visa arrangements, and incidentals.
