BRIDGE (Building Rigorous Impact through Data-driven Governance) is a flagship capacity building training program developed by the Egypt Impact Lab to strengthen the ability of government institutions to leverage administrative data for evidence-based decision-making and cost-effective programs. The program focuses on moving beyond the operational use of administrative data toward its strategic use in program design, monitoring, and evaluation.

The first iteration of BRIDGE with the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises Development Agency (MSMEDA) is delivered as part of the ongoing capacity building program series implemented by EIL in collaboration with MSMEDA. This collaboration builds on a shared commitment to strengthening data-driven governance within the firms and finance sector, with a particular focus on micro-credit programs and financial inclusion interventions.
