At least 100 new reviews are ongoing or already completed on a range of topics across the board in international development, many of which were commissioned by policy-making agencies. These new reviews need to be based on answerable questions, using methods of analysis and reporting which are appropriate for social and economic development programmes and relevant to users. This introductory paper lays out why we believe systematic reviews should be an important component of evidence-informed development policy and practice. It concludes by introducing the papers collected in this issue, which aim to demonstrate how reviews can be made to live up to the promises generated around them.}, number = {3}, urldate = {2018-05-17}, journal = {Journal of Development Effectiveness}, author = {White, Howard and Waddington, Hugh}, month = sep, year = {2012}, note = {shortDOI: 10/gf3t4g KerkoCite.ItemAlsoKnownAs: 10.1080/19439342.2012.711343 10/gf3t4g 2339240:9ZS4VDFU 2405685:REZFBZQW}, keywords = {-FullBiblioUHMLgen, -GeneralCitations, 3ie, CLL:en, Reviewed, impact evaluation, publicImportV1, systematic reviews}, pages = {351--358}, } @techreport{kuper_rapid_2018, title = {Rapid {Evidence} {Assessment} ({REA}) of what works to improve educational outcomes for people with disabilities in {Low}- and {Middle}-{Income} {Countries}}, url = {https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/738206/Education_Rapid_Review_full_report.pdf}, institution = {Department for International Development (DFID)}, author = {Kuper, Hannah and Ashrita, Saran and White, Howard}, year = {2018}, note = {KerkoCite.ItemAlsoKnownAs: 2339240:IU9ER8SU 2405685:EZEF9NPK}, } @article{waddington_how_2012, title = {How to do a good systematic review of effects in international development: a tool kit}, volume = {4}, issn = {1943-9342, 1943-9407}, shorttitle = {How to do a good systematic review of effects in international development}, url = {http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/19439342.2012.711765}, doi = {10.1080/19439342.2012.711765}, language = {en}, number = {3}, urldate = {2018-01-19}, journal = {Journal of Development Effectiveness}, author = {Waddington, Hugh and White, Howard and Snilstveit, Birte and Hombrados, Jorge Garcia and Vojtkova, Martina and Davies, Philip and Bhavsar, Ami and Eyers, John and Koehlmoos, Tracey Perez and Petticrew, Mark and Valentine, Jeffrey C. and Tugwell, Peter}, month = sep, year = {2012}, note = {shortDOI: 10/gftr66 KerkoCite.ItemAlsoKnownAs: 10.1080/19439342.2012.711765 10/gftr66 2339240:9SUYHN2U 2405685:5TBR9BT9 UA-2dba826a-34ad-40f0-ae9b-959792b2e7e}, keywords = {-FullBiblioUHMLgen, -GeneralCitations, -missingHU, 3ie, DL4D cited, Reviewed, \_\_\_working\_potential\_duplicate, auto\_merged, publicImportV1}, pages = {359--387}, }
