Evaluation research aims to demonstrate a causal relationship between dependent and independent variables, rather than just one of association. It will typically involve an experimental design in which the effects on the experimental group are compared with a control group who have not been part of the experiment. In this way the likelihood of a casual link between, say, receiving a job seekers grant and getting a job, can be established.

Major projects often require examination of social and community issues. We have assisted clients both within formal Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) procedures and as part of supporting research activities.
