QUANTITATIVE DATA COLLECTION
Structured surveys at scale
- Large-scale household surveys
- CAPI, CATI and other digital modes
- Monitoring and evaluation surveys
- Baseline and endline studies
OUR COVERAGE
Local field capability.
Regional coordination.
Research360 supports data collection across East, West, Central and Southern Africa, combining local researchers and country-level knowledge with common protocols, supervision and quality controls.
AFRICAN FIELD DELIVERY
From city households
to hard-to-reach communities.
Our fieldwork model is built for different African operating environments - from urban centres and informal settlements to rural communities, border areas and dispersed populations.
Coverage is confirmed against the practical requirements of each study, including team availability, language capability, respondent access, logistics and quality controls.
QUALITATIVE DATA COLLECTION
Depth and lived experience
- Focus group discussions
- In-depth and key informant interviews
- Ethnographic and observational studies
- Participatory research approaches
REGIONAL COVERAGE
Local teams, common controls
- Multi-country data collection
- Local researcher recruitment and training
- Multilingual instrument preparation
- Fieldwork QA and supervision protocols
REGIONAL DELIVERY
One research framework.
Different field realities.
Country plans are adapted locally within a common delivery framework so language, access, permissions and logistics can vary without weakening comparability.
EAST AFRICA
Direct coordination strength
Urban, rural, community and cross-border mobilisation supported through local teams and regional coordination.
WEST AFRICA
Language and access planning
Francophone, Anglophone and local-language requirements are built into recruitment, tools and supervision.
CENTRAL AFRICA
Context-sensitive execution
Field plans account for geographic reach, connectivity, permissions, security and feasible supervision arrangements.
SOUTHERN AFRICA
Multi-market field support
Quantitative and qualitative assignments are coordinated through local teams using shared protocols and reporting routines.
MULTI-COUNTRY COORDINATION
Regional coordination. Country-level insight.
Multi-country assignments are coordinated through a shared study framework while country teams manage language, access, logistics and field realities locally.
DATA COLLECTION BY SECTOR
Fieldwork shaped by
the population and topic.
Different sectors create different respondent, sensitivity and access requirements. Our field plans are therefore adapted to the programme context rather than using one standard deployment model.
HEALTH
Health & service access
Health-seeking behaviour, maternal care, WASH practices, immunisation, facility use and community service access.
EDUCATION
Learning & participation
School attendance, learning outcomes, teacher performance and barriers affecting vulnerable learners.
LIVELIHOODS
Income, work & food security
Household livelihoods, employment, skills programmes, income sources, agricultural activity and food security.
GENDER & INCLUSION
Participation & protection
Gender dynamics, inclusion, empowerment, participation and sensitive topics such as GBV where appropriate safeguards are in place.
GOVERNANCE
Accountability & public services
Citizen experience, service delivery, trust, civic engagement, transparency and institutional accountability.
MIGRATION & DISPLACEMENT
Mobile and displaced populations
Migration drivers, refugee and host-community needs, mobility, remittances and service access in displacement settings.
COORDINATION MODEL
One study framework. Country-level execution.
For multi-country studies, the central project team protects the common protocol while country teams manage local realities that affect fieldwork.

BEFORE WE CONFIRM A MARKET
Coverage is confirmed
study by study.
We confirm delivery only after considering the practical requirements of the brief - particularly for hard-to-reach populations, sensitive topics and short mobilisation windows.
01
Sample feasibility
Can the required population be identified and recruited using a defensible approach in the available timeframe?
02
Language fit
Are suitable enumerators, moderators and translators available for the required language and respondent profile?
03
Operational access
What permissions, travel, security, connectivity or community-entry requirements affect the field plan?
04
Quality control
Can supervision, verification and central review be implemented to the standard required by the protocol?
Need the fieldwork approach as well?
