Visual Summaries
Evidensia’s Visual Summaries help you make sense of what the available evidence says on key research questions. The summaries plot individual statistical results from all relevant impact evaluation studies reviewed as part of specific research synthesis efforts undertaken by us or other researchers with each square representing one result from a study.
For more information on the methodology and type of evidence included in these Visual Summaries visit the Evidensia Approach and Methodology page and scroll down to Visual Summaries.
