Bangladesh Debt/Migration Study
Development Studies
In June 1998 BARA initiated A Qualitative Study
of the Impacts of CARE's Road Improvements on Household Livelihood
Security in Bangladesh. This study is an ethnographic supplement to
a large-scale socioeconomic impact assessment survey that was designed
and guided by an agricultural economist from U of A. The qualitative
component involves working with local CARE staff to deepen and contextualize
the survey data through open ended interviews and focus group discussions
with different groups of road users (such as rickshaw pullers, shop
owners, local school and health personnel, etc) as well as people
living along the roads. A draft report is due in August 1999. The
project also involves training local staff in ethnographic and field
investigation methods.
