We kindly invite you to submit your abstract to the organized session "USING NETWORK RESEARCH FOR IMPACT EVALUATION" at the XXXIX Sunbelt conference in Montreal (June 18-23, 2019).
The session is dedicated to strengthening links between network research and impact evaluation (including direct and indirect impacts, short and long term effects, etc.). Work at the intersection of these fields lags behind expectations. Furthermore, the theoretical, empirical, and methodological approaches fail to consider this intersection comprehensively. Closing this gap should contribute to open up new perspectives in the field of impact evaluation. Moving toward to such new perspectives promotes the development of new research approaches and methodological frameworks, especially for social impact assessment. This session will offer a forum to present contributions to the field of impact evaluation by focusing on network data collection, methods, visualizations, and the use of technology for network-based evaluation. Innovative approaches of network research within the broader area of evaluation are welcome.
We invite abstract submissions that contribute to the consolidation of network research in the field of (social) impact evaluation.
Please submit your abstract by using the conference submission system https://www.fourwav.es/view/717/submission/
Deadline: February 1st, 2019, 23:00 (EDT-UDC-5:00).
