“…We identified seven studies that evaluate an information provision intervention or include an information provision component. Two interventions assessed in these studies provided information or training on citizens' rights and responsibilities (Sexton 2017;Edjekumhene et al 2019). Six included information about government or private actors' performance, making this the second most studied intervention, after the EITI.…”

“…Six included information about government or private actors' performance, making this the second most studied intervention, after the EITI. Of these, only one study combined the two types of information (Edjekumhene et al 2019).…”

“…In six studies that looked at this kind of intervention, implementation was done through public forums or workshops. Two studies used mobile technologies to disseminate information or allow citizens to monitor and send feedback (Edjekumhene et al 2019;Pellegrini et al 2019). Four studies used inperson campaigns that required going door-to-door; two of these included the distribution of leaflets (Armand et al 2018;Paler 2013).…”

“…As Figure 4 illustrates, all the EITI studies were coded as dealing with all extractive sectors (mining, oil and gas). For the remaining nine studies, one evaluation dealt with all of these sectors (Sexton 2017), two focused on the oil sector (Pellegrini et al 2019;de la Cuesta et al 2017), three focused on both oil and gas (Edjekumhene et al 2019;Coleman et al 2019;Paler 2013), two focused on the gas sector (Birdsall et al 2018;Armand et al 2019) and one focused on the mining sector (Pande and Sudarshan 2019).…”

“…Five studies report subgroup analyses conducted on several dimensions. One study reports analysis by age group (Edjekumhene et al 2019), five by sex, and one by sex, socioeconomic status and education (Birdsall et al 2018). One study does not report results for subgroups, but does disaggregate data by sex (de la Cuesta et al 2017).…”

The International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie) promotes evidence-informed equitable, inclusive and sustainable development. We support the generation and effective use of high-quality evidence to inform decision-making and improve the lives of people living in poverty in low-and middle-income countries. We provide guidance and support to produce, synthesise and quality assure evidence of what works, for whom, how, why and at what cost. 3ie evidence gap map reports 3ie evidence gap maps are thematic collections of information about impact evaluations or systematic reviews that measure the effects of international development policies and programmes. The maps provide a visual display of completed and ongoing systematic reviews and impact evaluations in a sector or sub-sector, structured around a framework of interventions and outcomes. The evidence gap map reports provide all the supporting documentation for the maps, including the background information for the theme of the map, the methods and results, protocols, and the analysis of results. About this evidence gap map report This report provides the supporting documentation for the 3ie evidence gap map on the effect of transparency and accountability interventions in the extractive sector, developed as a part of a project funded by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation.

Background Policy makers need access to reliable data to monitor and evaluate the progress of development outcomes and targets such as sustainable development outcomes (SDGs). However, significant data and evidence gaps remain. Lack of resources, limited capacity within governments and logistical difficulties in collecting data are some of the reasons for the data gaps. Big data—that is digitally generated, passively produced and automatically collected—offers a great potential for answering some of the data needs. Satellite and sensors, mobile phone call detail records, online transactions and search data, and social media are some of the examples of big data. Integrating big data with the traditional household surveys and administrative data can complement data availability, quality, granularity, accuracy and frequency, and help measure development outcomes temporally and spatially in a number of new ways.The study maps different sources of big data onto development outcomes (based on SDGs) to identify current evidence base, use and the gaps. The map provides a visual overview of existing and ongoing studies. This study also discusses the risks, biases and ethical challenges in using big data for measuring and evaluating development outcomes. The study is a valuable resource for evaluators, researchers, funders, policymakers and practitioners in their effort to contributing to evidence informed policy making and in achieving the SDGs. Objectives Identify and appraise rigorous impact evaluations (IEs), systematic reviews and the studies that have innovatively used big data to measure any development outcomes with special reference to difficult contexts Search Methods A number of general and specialised data bases and reporsitories of organisations were searched using keywords related to big data by an information specialist. Selection Criteria The studies were selected on basis of whether they used big data sources to measure or evaluate development outcomes. Data Collection and Analysis Data collection was conducted using a data extraction tool and all extracted data was entered into excel and then analysed using Stata. The data analysis involved looking at trends and descriptive statistics only. Main Results The search yielded over 17,000 records, which we then screened down to 437 studies which became the foundation of our systematic map. We found that overall, there is a sizable and rapidly growing number of measurement studies using big data but a much smaller number of IEs. We also see that the bulk of the big data sources are machine‐generated (mostly satellites) represented in the light blue. We find that satellite data was used in over 70% of the measurement studies and in over 80% of the IEs. Authors' Conclusions This map gives us a sense that there is a lot of work being done to develop appropriate measures using big data which could subsequently be used in IEs. Information on costs, ethics, transparency is lacking in the studies and more work is needed in this area to understand the efficaci...
