Qualitative and Quantitative Research Methodologies (QQRM)

Description

Introduction

Research is a core area in development and humanitarian programming. Some of the research activities normally undertaken by various programs to promote evidence-based planning include assessments, surveys and evaluations. These activities employ qualitative and quantitative research methodologies. Qualitative research aims at generating an in-depth understanding of a specific program activity or event, rather than surface description of a large sample of a population. On the other hand, quantitative research focuses on gathering, analyzing and presenting numerical data and generalizing it across groups of people to explain a particular phenomenon.

Given the great significance of research in development and humanitarian work, we have planned a five-day training on Qualitative and Quantitative Research Methodologies. The training aims at equipping participants with current knowledge, skills and best practices on research to improve the quality of their overall programming.

Course objectives

This five-day course aims at building the knowledge and competencies of participants on qualitative and quantitative research methods, through a combination of in-house training, practical field exercises and critique of the field work.
