This report consolidates the relevance, credibility, applicability of the research projects conducted in Bangladesh

Abstract

The Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) is responsible for the rural roads and transportation infrastructure in Bangladesh, with about 353,000 km of rural roads spanning across the country. ReCAP interventions aimed at improving the rural road and transport infrastructure by carrying out targeted research and building research capacity to bring and sustain change. With an aim to gauge the impact of this research conducted, EY undertook an impact study to capture the value created by ReCAP research projects and how much has it improved the rural road and transport infrastructure through its targeted research and capacity building activities to sustain the change. This Final Report consolidates the relevance, credibility, applicability of the research projects conducted in Bangladesh and further validates that combining quantitative and qualitative methods is a useful strategy to increase confidence in impact evaluation findings.

This work is part of the Applied Research on Rural Roads and Transport Services through Community Access Programmes in Africa and Asia (AFCAP2 and AsCAP)
