EVALUATION METHODOLOGY
The mid-term evaluation will use mixed method, quantitative and qualitative approaches including desk review and key informant interview methods that enhance participatory evaluation and learning.
Household survey: The Consultant will employ a household survey to assess changes on key outcome indicators (see Annex D). The scope of the household survey is expected to be comparable to the project baseline survey. Multi-stage sampling technique is proposed to identify eligible households as follows:
Based on the assumption of a 1.5 design effect, 5% type I error, 80% power, to detect a 5% change from baseline estimate (considering a key indicator such as proportion of under five children slept under LLIN i.e 43.3% to 48.3) requires a sample size of 1555. With the inclusion of all eligible women in a selected household, a maximum of 1800 participants will be interviewed across all 4 regions.
o Project documents: project planning; budget; performance reports, success stories, training packages and materials, supportive supervision and field visit reports, baseline survey report
o Assessment reports: radio reach and recall assessment, and leadership through strategic health communication (LSHC) training skills application assessment reports;
o Any other relevant documents (Malaria indicator survey, PMA2020 & JMP reports etc)
