Feed the Future ZOI Survey Methods Toolkit - Midline (2021)
This landing page houses the Feed the Future Zone of Influence (ZOI) Survey Methods Toolkit - midline (2021). It provides mandatory technical guides, templates, and tools to standardize data collection processes and ensure data quality. These materials, combined with the close engagement of and technical advice from the Bureau for Resilience and Food Security (RFS) Analysis and Learning Division, are designed to support the following guiding principles for implementing Feed the Future ZOI Surveys:
- Collection, analysis, and reporting of accurate, complete, and high-quality data for decision-making
- Standardization of technical approaches
- Appropriate and consistent timing of survey implementation
- Evaluation-focused sampling approach
