Center of Evaluation for Global Action
Bringing Science to Global Development. The Center of Evaluation for Global Action (CEGA) is a multi-disciplinary research center at the University of California, Berkeley advancing global health and development through impact evaluation and economic analysis. The Center is premised on the principle that knowledge gained from randomized trials—and other forms of impact evaluation—is a valuable public good that can improve policy and outcomes around the world.
