Resilience Index Measurement and Analysis, 2019 - Myanmar

Abstract
---------------------------

The baseline survey of beneficiaries targeted by project GCP/MYA/028/EC is designed to feed into the overall monitoring, evaluation, accountability and learning agenda of the Global Network against Food Crises Partnership Programme. In this regard, the baseline has short, medium and long-term objectives. In the short-term, the baseline will provide feedback on the project's theory of change – whether it is well-conceived in terms of project entry points or if some adjustments/complementary actions are to be considered. From the analysis, the programming team can ascertain if the strategy of the project will address the critical factors for resilience to food insecurity. It also serves to support the targeting strategy of the project to ensure that the criteria for selection are aligned with local profiles and realities of the implementation context.

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure
---------------------------

In total, 300 beneficiaries or 6% of the total 4,500 project beneficiaries were randomly selected from the beneficiary list made available by the implementing partner. The sample can be considered representative of the overall beneficiary population with a ±5% margin of error at a 95% confidence level.

Sampling deviation
---------------------------

Due to the delay in receiving travel authorizations to the project areas, FAO M&E officers and field assistants could not travel to the sampled villages but had to administer the questionnaires from offices located in Buthidaung and Maungdaw township (the respective District headquarters) from the 13th to 18 August 2019. The selected beneficiaries were, therefore, requested to reach the interview locality with FAO covering the cost of the travel. Moreover, and due to heightened insecurity at the time of the survey, Rathedaung township was not accessible, thus reducing the possibility to interview beneficiaries from this township and further reducing the sample size.

Mode of data collection
---------------------------

Computer Assisted Personal Interview [capi]

Cleaning operations
---------------------------

The data were collected through computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) with digital tablets. The use of electronic devices reduces the duration of interviews, limits errors during the interview and data entry phases, and enables the collection of geographic information system (GIS) information at the household level. The data were transmitted daily through Kobo Toolbox, a suite of software tools for data collection in challenging environments, allowing for the use of remote data control protocols.

摘要
---------------------------
项目GCP/MYA/028/EC的目标受益人基线调查旨在为全球粮食危机网络合作计划的整体监测、评估、问责制和学习议程提供支持。在此背景下，基线调查设定了短期、中期和长期目标。在短期内，基线调查旨在对项目的变革理论提供反馈——项目切入点是否构思得当，或者是否需要考虑某些调整/补充行动。通过分析，项目编制团队可以确定项目战略是否能够解决应对粮食不安全的关键因素。此外，它还有助于支持项目的目标定位策略，以确保选拔标准与实施环境的本地特征和现实情况相一致。

样本调查数据 [ssd]
抽样程序
---------------------------
总计，从实施伙伴提供的受益人名单中随机选取了300名受益人，占总体4,500名受益人的6%。该样本在95%的置信水平下，误差范围为±5%，可以被视为总体受益人群的代表。
抽样偏差
---------------------------
由于收到前往项目区域的旅行授权延误，FAO的监测与评估官员和现场助理无法前往抽样村庄，但不得不从位于布迪当和茂都乡（相应区的区总部）的办公室于2019年8月13日至18日进行问卷调查。因此，要求选定的受益人自行前往访谈地点，FAO承担旅行费用。此外，由于调查期间的不安全性增加，拉铁当乡无法进入，因此减少了访谈该乡受益人的可能性，进而减少了样本量。
数据收集方式
---------------------------
计算机辅助个人访谈 [capi]
数据清理操作
---------------------------
数据通过计算机辅助个人访谈（CAPI）和数字平板电脑收集。电子设备的使用缩短了访谈时间，限制了访谈和数据录入阶段中的错误，并能够收集到家庭层面的地理信息系统（GIS）信息。数据通过Kobo Toolbox每日传输，这是一套适用于困难环境数据收集的软件工具，允许使用远程数据控制协议。
