Evidence on living standards and social change
Socio-economic research measures the conditions people live in: income and livelihoods, housing, education, health, and access to services such as water, power, banking and the internet. It shows who is doing well, who is being left behind, and why.
We run these studies for government departments, CSR foundations, NGOs, development agencies and researchers. Our enumerators work in the local language, households are selected by sound sampling, and every interview is geo-tagged and quality checked.
