The Curve

The Curve is a global community of practice striving to help development programs get better faster through Responsive Feedback. The Curve is led by Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and M&C Saatchi World Services, and is supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Responsive Feedback helps to fill evidence gaps throughout a program’s life cycle, ensuring practitioners can use data to make better decisions. The Curve’s objective is to democratize Responsive Feedback: supporting our colleagues in the development sector to become skilled Responsive Feedback practitioners and integrate the Responsive Feedback approach into their programs and proposals. We have developed a 5-step process for Responsive Feedback, aptly called The CURVE, that provides practical guidance for anyone looking to enhance evidence-based decision making during a program’s life cycle. We provide free guidance, tools, training and case studies to help our colleagues improve program outcomes.
