The evaluation of the UK Government's Tampon Tax Fund (TTF), established in 2015, incorporated Qualitative Impact Assessment Protocol (QuIP) techniques to capture grantees' perspectives.
The project allocated £86.25 million in grants from sanitary product taxes to support women and girls. The evaluation assessed the fund's impact using methods like a grantee survey, bid review, public data analysis, case studies, and evidence synthesis from project-level M&E data.
Interviewees were encouraged to reflect on a broad range of causal pathways relating to their work. Organisational causal maps were created for each grantee interviewed and then combined to compare causes and effects across the group.
