Impact is the goal for social entrepreneurs and researchers alike. Yet, despite the proliferation of programs aimed at addressing large-scale social problems, there is very little high-quality evidence of their effectiveness.

This will be followed by an open discussion on barriers and opportunities for making quality evaluation research the domain of all practitioners.
