The Regional Statistics Department visited AHIES on data collecting in the region to ascertain the quality of data collected and reported back to the Project Coordinator at the Head Office.
Within the period under review, the Regional Statistician also monitored field workers working on Non-Standard Units Survey (NSUS). This project was about standardizing local units of measurement used in both household and market levels. At present, there is no standard methodology for collecting food quantities. In many household surveys, respondents are compelled to estimate quantities in standards or metric units, typically kilograms or liters.
