Start of data collection phase in KfW funded study

Health Focus is training data collectors in six West African countries and is supporting them in the data collection phase throughout the summer. The study taking place in Benin, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Mali, Niger and Sierra Leone is looking at young people’s knowledge, their practices and attitudes towards topics of sexual and reproductive health. The data collectors are not only trained in data collection processes, the utilisation of the developed questionnaire and the digital applications, but also in how to collect sensitive data in a polite and ethically correct manner.
