Introduction of baseline draft design and Development indicators

(Dr. I. Okike)


Baseline survey – Background

• Time available for survey – Mid-January to March

– Build on established approaches and reports/ instruments e.g.

• Child Development Grant Programme Evaluation (2016) -

Zamfara & Jigawa states

• Malnutrition study in Ethiopia (2007) – Save the Children

(UK)


Baseline survey – Background

• State level statistical representativeness– Power calculation led to sample size, 350 & 290

households per state will provide 99% & 95% confidence levels assuming 25% stunting rate nationally.

– For anthropometry, obtain measurements for all children under 5 per selected household and their caregiver/s or mother/s.

– States are known: Benue, Ebonyi, Ogun & Sokoto (Borno ??)


Data collection

• Village level survey – Key informants

• Household survey in each state

• Secondary data collection at state level


Data collection• Survey in all 4 states at the same time

• 15 Enumerators per state (including 5 females for anthropometric measurements and caregiver interviews).

• Expect contribution from states in logistics and planning (transportation, list of households for sampling, etc.)


Development Indicators

• (proposed to cover all the subthemes)Sub-theme Core indicator

Income povertyProportion of population living below national poverty line

Income inequalityRatio of share in national income of highest to lowest quintile
