The Power of Mobile-Based Data Collection in Migration Research Traditional migration studies – in-person surveys or censuses – often fail to capture timely insights, especially for mobile or hard-to-reach populations.?Mobile-based data collection is changing the game?by enabling real-time, large-scale insights into migration trends. As in the example above where GeoPoll ran the multicountry Central America survey via?phone calls (CATI), mobile surveys (via SMS, voice calls, or mobile web), enable researchers to quickly reach respondents across wide geographies, including migrants on the move or remote communities. This approach offers several advantages over traditional methods: https://lnkd.in/dWg_aUEw #Data #Research #CATI #MobileSurveys #SMSSurveys #GeoPollSurvey

Migration decisions are often driven by a mix of economic and security factors. Reading through GeoPoll’s recent Central America Migration Survey: Interim Report, you get a case in point on why people migrate and how they view potential destinations. Across Central America, many respondents cited economic hardship, lack of jobs, violence, and family reunification as primary reasons for considering migration. In Honduras, for example, 27% of those surveyed struggle to afford food and only about half feel secure in their community. From these findings, it is evident that economic and safety pressures at home push people to leave, even as hopes and concerns about life in other countries influence their plans. https://hubs.ly/Q038XDyG0 #GeoPollReport #Data #Research #CentralAmericaMigration

MEAL: Using Mobile to Track the Impact of Donor-Funded Projects: Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability, and Learning (MEAL)?is at the core of effective development work. NGOs and donors need real-time insights into project impact to ensure resources are used efficiently and objectives are met. Traditional MEAL methods, such as in-person surveys and paper-based reporting, often result in delayed data, increased costs, and logistical challenges. Mobile-based data?collection presents a powerful alternative—enabling faster, more scalable, and more reliable project tracking. Successful MEAL strategies rely on a combination of timely data collection, community engagement, and iterative learning.
