À propos de l'événement
This webinar will discuss how to design data collection efforts through five considerations: the budget, respondents and accessibility, the kind of data being collected, challenges to data collection and how the data will be used. The webinar will discuss these considerations as well as specific data collection tools such as Kobo Toolbox, Tangerine, and Computer Assisted Telephonic Interview (CATI). The presentations will outline how these tools are important for the practice and institutionalization of M&E: Culture, Context and Collaboration.
