Multipliers can be a cost-effective tool to estimate broader impacts such as employment creation. Programs need to validate existing multipliers or need to develop their own sector and context specific multipliers. This Practitioners’ Note aims to assist programs to assess when multipliers may be appropriate to use, how to use existing multipliers and how to develop multipliers. This Practitioners’ Note focuses on the decision-making process; for the more technical aspects, reference is made to other publications and case studies.
