What is its purpose?
The indicator measures the number of implemented social protection innovations (new services, approaches, etc.) which passed the pre-defined criteria of a “successful piloting”.
How to Collect and Analyse the Required Data
Calculate the indicator's value by using the following methodology:
1) Pre-define the criteria of a “successful piloting”. This can include, for example:
> the pilot was able to provide clear evidence of its benefits, especially when compared to the existing services or approaches
> the pilot can be scaled up in a cost-efficient way
> scaling up the pilot does not face any major opposition from the main stakeholders in the given (sub)sector
> the pilot provided clear lessons learned and recommendations for its scale up
2) Assess whether the pre-defined criteria were met by reviewing relevant documentation and conducting interviews with the concerned personnel.
3) Calculate the number of implemented pilots which meet the pre-defined criteria.
Important Comments
1) Proving the benefits of the given pilot might require you to conduct a survey involving a control group, enabling you to assess the actual benefits brought by the new service or approach.
