TechnoServe works with enterprising people in the developing world to build competitive farms, businesses, and industries. We are a nonprofit organization that develops business solutions to poverty by linking people to information, capital and markets. Our work is rooted in the idea that hardworking people can generate income, jobs and wealth for their families and communities. With five decades of proven results, we believe in the power of private enterprise to transform lives.

Our success in creating business solutions to poverty is due in large part to our talented and highly committed team. TechnoServe employs more than 1,500 people, the vast majority of them host-country nationals working in the field. Our staff combine business expertise with local knowledge, relationships, and context to help hardworking men and women generate income, jobs and wealth for their families and communities. 

In 2020, TechnoServe's work helped transform the lives of 1.3 million people in Puerto Rico as well as countries throughout Africa, Latin American, and Asia by targeting improvements in farms, businesses, and industries. Learn more about our impact at www.technoserve.org/impact

Breaking news -- you just maxed out the number of evaluations in my long-term impact challenge! So here is my $1,000 donation to our local animal shelter 👇 And my 4 main takeaways from this experiment:

(1) There have been more ex-post evaluations carried out than I had previously thought. On the donor side – kudos to the Millennium Challenge Corporation and to the Japan International Cooperation Agency, both of which carry out regular ex-post evaluations on projects of a certain size. (JICA’s evaluations alone could have maxed out this challenge!) 

#USAID has run some high-quality ex-post evaluations and has even used the results to drive policy change. But despite this, USAID only supports ex-post evaluations on a tiny share of the work it funds – like far too many other large development donors.

(2) Yes, we reached the maximum donation to the animal shelter … but the overall numbers look BAD. The fact that, apart from JICA, we got ~dozens of post-project evaluations in response to this query – amid the thousands of development projects and billions of dollars spent over the years – indicates that measuring long-term impact is the rare exception, not the norm.

🙀🙀🙀 <--shocked cats, appropriately

(3) It was great to see the wide variety of organizations who used many different methodologies to answer the question: Did a project's impact last after it ended? As we seek to scale up long-term impact measurement, let's consider a range of approaches -- the perfect doesn’t have to be the enemy of the good.

(4) Perhaps the most important lesson has been that ex-post evaluations tend to generate ACTIONABLE information that can change the direction of development policies and investments. Sometimes their findings are different than those of a project’s endline evaluation! Simply put, if we want to make impact that lasts, we have to measure it. Regularly.


Armed with all this new information, I’m turning my attention to how to scale up the use of ex-post evaluations. It seems obvious to me that the answer to scale-up must lie with development donors rather than with implementers. After all, they have the ability to require more regular ex-post evaluations on their projects.

But I’m eager to learn more, and to hear YOUR thoughts on how to find and fund the lasting solutions that people fighting poverty so deserve. Let me know if you're interested in joining these efforts – and thank you again!
