Quantitative and qualitative content analysis methods for document review for monitoring purposes

Abstract

Following the introduction of the workshop, the first presentation will give a brief overview of quantitative and qualitative methods for content analysis that can be used for the systematic review of documents for the purposes of monitoring and evaluation of public health initiatives and programs. The types of existing documents useful for monitoring and evaluation will be identified. Furthermore, tips will be given on designing reporting forms for later review, if there is an opportunity to do so. Data management tools useful for both quantitative and qualitative content analysis will be described.
