The identified changes are...

It has been common to say that studies should address not just the question of what works, but also how, where, for whom and at what cost? A unifying framework for such an approach is the theory of change. This paper lays out an approach for using such a theory-based approach to systematic reviews, discussing issues which arise in mixed-methods causal chain analysis. I illustrate the funnel of attrition which is a heuristic device to understand why effect sizes are lower at the higher...

The world is facing a worsening youth employment crisis. In response, technical and vocational education and training (TVET) is back on the development agenda after years of neglect. This systematic review examined the evidence from studies evaluating the impacts of TVET interventions for young people in low- and middleincome countries (LMICs). The 26 included studies evaluated 20 different interventions, predominantly from Latin America. Meta-analyses of the effectiveness of TVET on five...
