A criminal record can—and often does—become a life sentence to poverty. It doesn't have to be this way. We envision a future where all eligible criminal records are expunged automatically, as a routine function of government.

Governments in low & middle-income countries need #evidence to inform how they allocate scarce resources and deliver critical public services to their citizens. 🌐

We reflect on our work over 4 years helping to facilitate evidence implementation.

[Results for All @resultsforall]

When gov'ts openly communicate w/ citizens & use evidence from research or impact evaluations to illustrate the scope of a problem or show a program was ineffective in solving it, they build public trust, prove they aren't hiding negative results, & justify new uses of public $$

[Results for All @resultsforall]

Why should gov’ts publish data / share info about the scope of a public problem?

[Results for All @resultsforall]

To help citizens understand why it’s a priority; to shape national dialogue & combat misinformation / fake news; to show how a specific program has addressed the problem in the past or in another context; to prove that the current approach isn’t working & justify a new one

"Buried in these bureaucratic records is a tremendous opportunity to extract insights that are timelier and more granular than other traditional data sources."
Glad to see @Data4SDGs support countries on using administrative data

[Jenna Slotin @jslotin]

We're excited about the potential of all forms of data to help us deliver on the #SDGs, even the least sexy. Check out our plans for administrative data in my new blog: https://t.co/aIHKYUzt7r

A recent @WorldBank_IEG @3ieNews conference used comedy & cartoons to initiate conversations about better communicating the results of impact evaluations. We can attest: a unique & refreshing way to start dialogue. See examples in the blog: https://t.co/nWVbesa4t8

In the 1970s, the gov't of #Indonesia doubled the # of primary schools. New schools then have led to better local governance now: @monicambravo @vox_dev reports improved access to safe drinking water, more healthcare centres & doctors. WATCH: https://t.co/ELaLQwRiyJ
