Recent and ongoing projects

Mission:

As part of a continuous improvement approach and to ensure the success and the anchorage of its projects, Hommes et Terre (H&T) wanted to supplement the forestry monitoring carried out in September 2020 with socio-economic monitoring. The forestry monitoring surveys were carried out in some villages in several regions of Burkina Faso, namely the Sahel, the Central Plateau and the Centre-Nord, where H&T intervenes.

The main objective of the mission was to provide technical support to Hommes et Terre to carry out socio-economic monitoring in order to evaluate:

–  The representation and understanding of the actions of Homme et Terre, especially on the importance of the forest,

–           The concrete socio-economic impacts of the project on two levels: (1) at the level of municipalities and villages and (2) at the level of households with a particular focus on women.

4 questionnaires were administered to 4 different target populations:

• A sheet dedicated to a municipal representative of each village;
• A sheet dedicated to a representative of the village unit of each village;
• A sheet dedicated to the household head of a household sample among the villages of the sites 19-20 ;
• A so-called “individual” sheet dedicated to a sample of women among the villages of the sites 19-20.

​

Results:

Specifically, Insuco was responsible for:

• Provide support for the construction of methodological and data collection tools;
• Train the teams of interviewers on the data collection tools;
• Monitoring the implementation of the remote survey;
• Program the questionnaire and process the data using the ONA/ODK electronic tool.
