1.2.4.3 Interviews<br />

The questionnaire was administered to respondents by enumerators. Each<br />

enumerator filled at most nine (9) and at least eight (8) questionnaires per day. The<br />

supervisor was responsible for deploying enumerators, collecting and correcting<br />

field questionnaires of enumerators under his/ her jurisdiction, and conducting the<br />

Focused Group Discussions (FGD).<br />

1.2.4.4 Pilot survey<br />

On completion of the training of enumerators and supervisors, a site that was not<br />

in the sample was used as a location for pilot survey. The questionnaire was tested<br />

for its comprehension, and the time it takes to fill it in. Upon the findings, the<br />

questionnaire was revamped. We sampled 13 villages of Gikondo sector and each of<br />

our 13 teams went in 1 village. There were sixty-five (65) enumerators and thirteen<br />

(13) supervisors and each of them interviewed one (1) household. This means that<br />

the pilot survey covered seventy-eight (78) households.<br />

1.2.5 Staffing and quality control<br />

For successful data collection, there was a very rigorous quality control that assured<br />

reliable results, it is in this essence that recruitment of field staff and data entry staff<br />

was done so carefully that we were able to get a good team that gave good results. The<br />

survey was carried out by trained enumerators and supervised by RGB Researchers.<br />

As it is a common practice in surveys, questions are either self-coded or precoded.<br />

Only two data items needed coding after data collection. The first item is the<br />

administrative identification information and the second is the economic activity.<br />

Enumerators were then requested to insert their administrative codes to familiarize<br />

with the actual work.<br />

1.2.6 Data collection<br />

Data collection was conducted across the 30 Districts of the country through 733<br />

villages. The data was gathered and to be entered by professional clerks for treatment<br />

and analysis.<br />

The data collection was done in 20 working days plus 2 days for departure and<br />

arrival. Given that most of the household’s members under eighteen are often absent<br />

during weekdays especially in Kigali City, it was necessary to contact the cell or village<br />

leaders for awareness.<br />
