Experimentation Webinar Series
How Context Matters in Designing and Running Field Experiments
How does context shape the design and implementation of field experiments? How can researchers adapt their approaches to different settings and populations while generating robust evidence?
Join us for the next session of the IGL Experimentation Webinar Series, exploring how context matters in experimental research. Through a completed research paper and an early-stage trial design, the session will bring together insights from research on female entrepreneurs in Vietnam and the Rohingya community.
The session will offer an opportunity to explore how researchers approach experimental design in different settings, the challenges that arise when conducting field experiments, and the considerations that can shape research in practice.
📅 Date: Tuesday, November 3, 2026
🕓 Time: 16:00–17:00 CET
The webinar will feature a research paper presentation and a trial design presentation, with opportunities for discussion and audience Q&A.
