The evaluation commissioned by Save the Children Norway (SCN) involved a mapping of SC’s CRG programmes globally and an impact study of a selection of the programmes with the purpose of:

Providing SC with a better overview of types of CRG interventions (including advocacy) at the national, regional and international levels, and a system for classifying types of outcome and impact resulting from them evidence of outcome and impact, positive and negative, intended and unintended, and establishing causal links between outcomes at system level and outcomes and impact for children.

The inteded outcome was to help SC make strategic decisions about priorities and directions in CRG, and develop their programmes, based on the evidence found.
