Efficient, Effective, or Inexpensive: Looking at Cost Efficiency for Impact, Not Just Savings
24m · PublishedNour AlSaaideh and Heba Abu Deyak reflect on what they learned doing cost efficiency analysis with the Dioptra tool.

Focusing on just cost runs the risk of creating programs that reach a lot more people without providing useful impacts in their lives. Do it well, and with some structure, can you can learn a lot about improving your programs.
