Evidence snapshot for Togo
Togo has implemented two evidence-based programmes demonstrating distinct development approaches. Novissi's AI-targeted cash transfers reached 920,000+ people and improved targeting precision by 42% compared with geographic targeting, though phone-based methods still produced 9–35% higher exclusion errors than a full social registry would have. In microenterprise training, psychology-based personal initiative instruction raised firm profits by 30% over two years among 1,500 Lomé participants, substantially outperforming traditional business training's statistically insignificant 11% gain, with gains of USD 91 monthly persisting at seven-year follow-up. Together, these practices show Togo using data-driven social protection and non-traditional training methods to address poverty, though exclusion and gender effects (women's gains dissipated by year seven) remain documented limitations.
