dc.description.abstract | This paper discusses the application of robust experimental research methodologies that help to provide a better understanding of the mechanisms of the Theory of
Change, for which training programs and/or matching grants improve job creation in
micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs and SMEs). The literature on
both interventions, such as training and matching grants, recognizes methodological
faws that hamper achieving enough statistical evidence to test the aforementioned
Theory of Change. A better understanding of the interventions and the mechanisms
to create jobs has become critical to ensure the resurgence of the global economy
after the COVID-19 pandemic and to face the threat of the upcoming industrial revolution. This paper proposes seven methodological meliorations in impact evaluation
that will help to set improvements alongside the full process of a project: designing
superior policies and programs, implementing projects, supporting the fner assessment of interventions, and establishing the subsequent advancement of science in
testing solutions for job creation. | es |
