  9. BENEFITS and LIMITATIONS of the CWIQ SURVEY BENEFITS LIMITATIONS • Quick data entry and reporting • Rapid processing of information for policy actions • Simple questionnaire with core & topics as modules • Core questions can be used in other surveys (HHB) • Modifications to Questionnaire cumbersome • Does not address some key welfare questions • Not a household and income expenditure survey • Does not capture seasonality, migration,HH production, etc.

  10. IS THE CWIQ SUSTAINABLE? Risk Factors • Staffing issues: • Understaffing at INE prevents necessary transfer of knowledge • Technical assistance required in : • Sampling design • Survey planning • Data processing (IT) • Financing: • Continued reliance on donors • Inability of Gov’t. to incorporate into own budget in foreseeable future

  11. LESSONS LEARNED • Don’t mess with Core questionnaire, modify modules • Need sufficient staff to ensure proper transfer of knowledge • Know what it is and what it is not. Not a Household Income/Expenditure survey…..
