Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
PROVIDE RESEARCH-RELATED SUPPORT TO GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, ENTERPRISES, AND ACADEMICS. IN RECENT YEARS, THESE GROUPS HAVE INCREASINGLY DEMANDED RIGOROUS EVIDENCE THAT DEMOSTRATES THE EFFICACY OF PROGRAMS OPERATING IN THE SOCIAL SPACE. ALTHOUGH KEEN TO SHOWCASE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THEIR INITIATIVES AND ALSO LEARN HOW TO IMPROVE AND SCALE THEM, MANY GROUPS ARE NOT FULLY EQUIPPED OR NECESSARILY WELL-VERSED IN CONDUCTING ASSESSMENTS OR PROGRAM EVALUATIONS. THEY ARE THEREFORE UNABLE TO PROVIDE AN OBJECTIVE, SCIENTIFIC BASIS FOR IMPROVING AND SCALING THEIR WORK. THE PURPOSE OF BETTER WORLD EMPIRICS IS TO PROVIDE THIS MUCH NEEDED RESEARCH-RELATED SUPPORT. THIS SUPPORT INCLUDES PROVIDING BOTH TOOLS AND EXPERTISE IN AREAS SUCH AS REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLING, ADMINISTRERING SURVEYS AND EXAMS, AS WELL AS DESIGNING AND IMPLEMENTING EXPERIMENTS AND QUASI-EXPERIMENTS.
