ASSIGNMENT DESCRIPTION
The Bank is looking for a firm (Survey Firm) to implement a data collection phone survey in The Gambia. The Evaluation Team from the Education Global Practice at the World Bank is fielding a nationally representative phone survey to ask parents/caregivers questions related to child development and parenting practices. The Survey Firm will use computer-assisted telephone interviewing (CATI) to administer the survey provided by the World Bank team to 2,000 caregivers. Preferably, the Firm will create a nationally representative sample of households with phones using Random Digit Dialing or their existing database of phone numbers. If the Firm cannot create a nationally representative sample, the World Bank team may assist in collaborating with the national statistics office to provide household phone numbers for the survey.
