Research & Evaluation
Since our founding in 1965, URC has worked in applied research and program evaluation practice areas. We pioneered the development of systems analysis and problem-solving methodologies to solve health management and technical issues in developing countries, and we are a recognized leader in using operations research to improve health and family planning programs.
URC offers services in sampling, instrument design, data collection, data analysis and interpretation, and use of data to foster policy and programmatic changes. We enable clients not only to effectively evaluate programs and interventions, but also to link data to quality improvement activities. We specialize in survey and formative research to plan and develop effective communication programs and measure outcomes of behavior change efforts.
