Data collectors in the Field

Lot Quality Assurance Sampling (LQAS) is a rapid, population–based sampling methodology often used in the health sector. Compared to cluster surveys, LQAS uses smaller sample sizes – which can make it a useful approach for data collection in resource-constrained settings.While LQAS sampling methodologies have been shown to be promising in other sectors, they have not been widely used in GBV programmes. During this project, the GWI plans to adapt the LQAS methodology for use by humanitarian agencies implementing GBV programmes.If it proves successful, a small sample size approach may reduce some of the common barriers for collecting population-based data on GBV in humanitarian settings and improve the international community’s ability to measure the impact of their programmes.The final project report provides information on the methodology, activities, outputs, impact and dissemination of learning.
