Data Collection Notes

From 10 August to 1 September 2003, training was held for interviewers. Each team consisted of 4 female interviewers, a male interviewer. Data collection activities started with the appointment of 10 teams with 7 members in each. When the data collection activities started winter was very near, therefore, it was planned to first cover the mountainous west and forested regions of the country, then Gobi and central regions and lastly Ulaanbaatar city. Data collection started on 4 September and terminated 26 December 1998. Data collection progress was reported weekly to the survey headquarters at the NSO. A number of persons from aimag, city, soum, district, baghs or horoos (around 560 persons in cumulative number) provided great assistance and collaboration during the fieldwork operation.

This way of organizing fieldwork ensured high quality and reliable information.
