The workshop covered sessions on key aspects in the design of experimental impact evaluations, presentations of experimental research, statistical exercises (with and without statistical software), and individual advisory sessions for participants to work on their own research designs. Key topics included causal inference, hypothesis testing, randomization, power, average treatment effects, non-compliance, and more.
