The Challenge
Government and business decisions were being made without a reliable, current picture of household-level economic conditions across Nigeria's local government areas.
KainosEdge Approach
KainosEdge designed a national survey platform and a socio-economic index methodology, piloting collection across a first wave of LGAs before scaling.
Core Features
- Household-level survey instrument design
- A composite socio-economic index methodology
- LGA-by-LGA data collection infrastructure
- A pipeline built to scale nationally
Value Delivered
A structured, repeatable way to see household-level economic conditions that didn't exist before, ready to inform both policy and investment decisions.
Results & Impact
The pilot phase covered 56 LGAs, establishing the methodology and infrastructure for a nationwide rollout.
