Our research journey
1. We develop through research
A research-grounded methodology is an approach that was developed based on formative research, but which has not yet been tested for effectiveness.
3. We test for effectiveness
An evidence-based methodology is an approach that has shown positive outcomes following at least one large-scale controlled effectiveness study.
2. We test for feasibility
An evidence-informed methodology is an approach that has shown promising outcomes following a feasibility study.
4. We implement at scale
We work with partners to bring evidence-based methodologies to more children and communities, adapting them while maintaining quality and building on what the evidence tells us.
