Summary:

This case study explores challenges faced by Banco da Providência, a Brazilian non-profit organization working to promote labor market inclusion of vulnerable individuals in Rio de Janeiro's favelas. The story revolves around Clarice Linhares, an executive at the organization, and Terezinha Nascimento, the social project manager, as they confront the challenge of assessing the social impact of their Three-Phase Productive Inclusion Program. The case contrasts different approaches to impact evaluation, ranging from quantitative to qualitative methods, and highlights the dilemmas posed by trade-offs between rigor, cost, and ethics in impact evaluations. Students will be asked to evaluate the available data, compare different impact assessment strategies, and recommend a path forward aligned with the organization's mission and constraints.
