Description |
The Baseline Report on the Challenge Facility's Innovation Grants (S1), January 2012, is attached to this catalog page. This baseline survey was carried out as part of the pre-project data collection for the Innovation Grants Activity under the Access to Finance Project. Due to a number of factors including the absence of a suitable comparison group, NORC eventually changed its original evaluation design, using this baseline data as well as collecting additional data as part of an Access to Finance Performance Evaluation. The results of these data collection activities are included in the final performance evaluation report for Access to Finance. The documentation and baseline data are posted here both to provide an analysis of the baseline data from S1 grantees, a history of the original design and to provide access to the data that are potentially useful for alternate purposes. |
