Susan Izett, M.P.H. and Nahid Toubia, MD

A guide on conducting research and evaluation to understand and effect social change. The book uses female circumcision/female genital mutilation (FC/FGM) as a case study and discusses experiences of researchers in the field who have worked on the subject highlighting methodologies and approaches that have proved effective.

While the specifics in the book are related to FC/FGM, many of the approaches described could also be applicable for research on sensitive and related issues, such as sexuality and domestic violence. The book examines the process of social change which occurs both naturally and as a result of specific interventions.
