Assignment Report: Baseline report: Impact Evaluation of the DFID Programme to Accelerate Improved Nutrition for the Extreme Poor in Bangladesh

Abstract

This report introduces the mixed methods impact evaluation of the DFID Programme to Accelerate Improved Nutrition for the Extreme Poor in Bangladesh, describes the relevant interventions and evaluation design, and presents selected findings from the quantitative baseline survey. Both baseline and endline quantitative data will be used to estimate impacts of the livelihoods and nutrition intervention components of the CLP, the Concern subproject within the Shiree/EEP, and the UPPR. The impact evaluation will be composed of the estimates from this quantitative impact component, along with analyses drawn from an exploratory/explanatory component (a qualitative subcomponent, where fieldwork has been ongoing as well as a process evaluation and a cost effectiveness component). This baseline report primarily describes the quantitative component and qualitative subcomponent, and focuses on analysing the quantitative baseline data (for which the fieldwork is already completed).
