Σύνοψη	The Community Scorecard (CSC) is a participatory social-accountability tool for community-based monitoring of public services, in which both the users and the providers of a service rate its performance and then meet face to face to agree improvements. Developed by CARE in Malawi in the early 2000s and widely disseminated by the World Bank, it operates at the local facility level — a clinic, school, or water point — and is qualitative and dialogue-driven, generating immediate, actionable feedback rather than statistically representative ratings.	Participatory Impact Assessment (PIA) is an approach to measuring the impact of development and humanitarian projects in which the affected communities define the indicators of change and use participatory tools to quantify it. Developed and codified by Andy Catley and colleagues at Tufts University's Feinstein International Center, largely through work on livestock and livelihoods programmes in pastoralist settings, PIA adapts participatory rural appraisal methods to the disciplined logic of impact evaluation — combining locally meaningful indicators with before-and-after and with-and-without comparisons to assess what a project actually changed.
