Impact Assessment Specialists from the William Davidson Institute (WDI) will share how they assessed the poverty impacts on children of six different ventures using qualitative research to formulate a strategic analysis of each. They will share direct and indirect impacts and the importance of triangulation in this type of assessment. Attendees will learn about the qualitative coding technique, references used, and data saturation points. Most importantly, WDI will review how their Impact Assessment Framework allowed them to compare and contrast impacts amongst stakeholders, both within each venture and across multiple ventures. The guest speaker, from SolarAid’s SunnyMoney, will review how the enterprise uses qualitative assessments in M&E processes and has used WDI’s findings to enhance positive impacts. *REGISTER NOW AT:* *https://www4.gotomeeting.com/register/562245159 <https://www4.gotomeeting.com/register/562245159>* *GUEST PRESENTER:* *Kat Harrison* Director - Research & Impact *SolarAid <http://www.solar-aid.org/about/>* *PRESENTERS:* *Heather Esper <http://wdi.umich.edu/about/people/staff-bios/heather-esper> * Program Manager - Impact Assessment *William Davidson Institute <http://wdi.umich.edu/about/>* *Yaquta Kanchwala Fatehi <http://wdi.umich.edu/about/people/staff-bios/yaquta-kanchwala-fatehi>* Research Associate - Impact Assessment *William Davidson Institute* <http://wdi.umich.edu/about/> *FREE WEBINAR SERIES:* This is the second in a series of three, FREE Impact Assessment webinars presented this summer by the William Davidson Institute. *Learn more * <http://wdi.umich.edu/research/bop/webinar2014> *HANDS-ON IMPACT ASSESSMENT WORKSHOP:* The webinar series will be followed by a hands-on *Impact Assessment Workshop* to be *held October 22-24, 2014 in Ann Arbor, MI.* *Limited seats available.* Learn more and register at*: http://bopworkshop.com <http://bopworkshop.com/>* *QUESTIONS?* *Email [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]>* * wdi.umich.edu <http://wdi.umich.edu>* ____ AIB-L is brought to you by the Academy of International Business.
