Kerala's decentralised planning puts real budgets with panchayats, so evaluations often compare wards rather than districts. Our enumerators report to our own supervisors, never to the local body whose work is under review.
We recruit and train Malayalam-speaking enumerators for the project district by district. South-west monsoon rain from June and the Onam holidays both shift field calendars, so we plan the heaviest household rounds outside those weeks.
Straight answers to the questions people ask most about this topic.
Yes. Kerala questionnaires are written in Malayalam, back-translated and piloted. Palakkad border areas can get Tamil forms and Kasaragod can get Kannada forms, chosen by the respondent when the interview starts.
We plan boat or ferry legs into the route before fieldwork and avoid the heaviest monsoon weeks. The app works offline, so interviews recorded on water or in low-signal wards sync when the enumerator reaches network.
We do not claim a local office. Field teams are deployed per project, and we recruit and train Malayalam-speaking enumerators for the districts each sample covers.
Yes. Kerala's 941 grama panchayats are the natural sampling unit for most rural and rurban studies. We draw wards first, then households, and report which wards were visited with GPS evidence.
