Baseline/Endline Surveys, Research and Evidence Building
Humanation undertakes baseline assessment to better understand the needs and requirements of the community. Baseline survey promotes better intervention methods and drawing of short and long term plans to yield maximum impact for your organisation. The mid line and endline surveys are necessary to see the trajectory and intended outcomes of social projects, which enable us for course corrections and new approach if required in a project. These are all necessary tools for ensuring the effectiveness and outreach of CSR projects, and are important as big money is involved in large projects, and not knowing it may make the entire CSR exercise futile.
