Experiences and Lessons Learned: Implementing the Ripple Effects Mapping Method Abstract:

Ripple effects mapping (REM) is a qualitative, participatory group method for evaluating complex programs. MEASURE Evaluation—a project funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)—adapted and used REM to supplement traditional evaluation methods and increase stakeholder participation. This brief shares how the application of REM was carried out in two studies in sub-Saharan Africa and lessons learned from the experience.
