The use of local enumerators and researchers to gather qualitative and quantitative evidence in hard-to-reach areas require the adoption of robust methodologies, accurate planning, flexibility, monitoring skills and the capacity to adapt to a changing environment. The two speakers will discuss lessons from their multi-annual experience in leading multi-cultural evaluation teams in conflict and violence-affected zones.
