Our Methodology
Study of the scheme details:
-
Meeting the core implementation team either through a physical/virtual meeting to crystallise the requirements of the study,
-
Study of the objectives, strategy, the physical and financial progress, implementation system, processes, and the outcome expected of the scheme/policy
-
Study of implementation of similar schemes in other places to enable cross-learning
Finalising the research methodology
-
Sampling techniques – size and selection methods
-
Preparing field survey formats to reflect the objectives of the study
-
Administering the survey and listing out persons for in-depth interviews
Data structure and IT system
-
Defining the data about the scheme and calling the required data fields from the indenting entity. This data will be analysed for adequacy and consistency.
-
Designing IT tools including mobile apps that capture data from the field.
-
Analysing the data captured from the field for robustness, completeness, consistency, and accuracy.
-
Comparing data with the secondary data for validation.
Field work and verification of the status on the field
-
All members of CRISP visit the field and interact with stakeholders. CRISP members stay in the field to gain an in-depth understanding of the field and find ways to improve the same.
-
Surveys will be administered by field level researchers under the guidance of the CRISP team, ensuring unbiased surveys.
-
Insights are taken from stakeholder interactions which leads to better implementation systems.
Report writing
-
The entire team of CRISP will examine the evidence and discuss the scope for improvement
-
These suggestions will be further field-tested on a random basis to ensure that they are practical and can be implemented
-
The results will be shared with the indenting entity in exit meeting to get feedback
-
The report will be finalised and presented
-
The report will be published in reputed academic journals and other places for wider dissemination.
