Abstract
To support sustainable fish food systems and nutrition in sub-Saharan Africa, the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD) provided funding to the FAO to support initial project activities in five countries (Sierra Leone, Malawi, Ghana, Uganda, Tanzania) with a focus on strengthening women's roles in the small-scale fisheries post-harvest sector. The project conducted a baseline survey as well as a needs assessment and mapping of women's organizations. Three surveys were developed to capture information from various stakeholders:
- Individual/Household level: The baseline study conducted for this project included individual intercept surveys targeting women as actors in small-scale fisheries value chains. The purpose of the survey was to understand both the individual respondent (i.e., the woman) and her household's involvement in fisheries, how they acquire and consume fish, their experiences of food security and dietary practices, and participation in fisheries governance and organizations. Approxtaimely 300 women were surveyed per country. This study was conducted for baseline monitoring and evaluation of the project “Empowering women in small-scale fisheries for sustainable food systems”.
- Focus group discussions: Focus group discussions were held in each landing site alongside data collection using other survey instruments. The purpose of the focus group discussions was to elicit qualitative data reflecting the opinions of women from the same fish landing sites on key issues affecting their work, status, and roles in the sector. This included their opinions of discrimination or harassment against women, their voice in decision-making and ability to influence fisheries governance, changes in gender relations over time, and their access to training, facilities, and assets needed to conduct their fisheries activities. This study was conducted for baseline monitoring and evaluation of the project “Empowering women in small-scale fisheries for sustainable food systems”.
- Individuals (with policy-level influence in the small-scale fishing sector): The baseline study conducted for this project included key informant interviews with those in policy, programme, or other similar levels of sector influence (e.g., Policy Makers, Government, Projects, Programmes working on social and health interventions in fishing communities). The purpose of the key informant interviews was to understand the opinion of respondents on local the diet and eating patterns of the community, women's empowerment, facilities they believe exist at or are in place and serve fish workers. In addition, the questions sought to gain an understanding of what is already known at decision-making levels of the FAO SSF Guidelines and knowledge of fishing community's capacity building needs and how learning and technological change occurs. This study was conducted for baseline monitoring and evaluation of the project "Empowering women in small-scale fisheries for sustainable food systems".
- Organizational level: The purpose of the survey is to enhance understanding of where women are organized in small-scale fisheries (or 'map' them both geographically and within the value chain) and what their present organizational characteristics, capacities, and needs are. Data were collected and analyzed to recommend interventions to enhance women’s organizational capacities and to work towards greater gender equality in fish value chains. The survey covers organizational-level characteristics (i.e., not individual members) of women’s small-scale fishery organizations (defined as formal or informal organizations whose members and leaders are majority women who work in the small-scale fishing sector). Data collection entailed 3-5 members of one women’s organization meeting and collectively answering the survey questions regarding the characteristics of their organization. The survey included questions about group structure, characteristics, and history as well as participation in the value chain, membership benefits, external linkages, and greatest needs.

Sampling
Sampling Procedure
Individual/household level:
- Sample size: 300 individuals per country
- Selection process: Surveys were conducted as intercept surveys at fish landing sites, markets and within fishing communities.
- Stratification: By district and landing site. The target number of surveys per country (300) was divided by the number of landing sites chosen for the study.
Focus groups:
- Non-random sample of women chosen opportunistically (based on availability) to participate in a small group, focus group discussions. Typically 2 focus group discussions were held in each district or region where data collection occurred for the larger, baseline assessment of the project.
- Individuals (with policy-level influence in the small-scale fishing sector):
Survey sampling for key informant interviews was purposive, selecting individuals who were known to be knowledgeable about relevant policy issues impacting fishing communities that were of interest to the project (e.g., nutrition, gender issues, leadership, decision-making). These individuals were identified based on the expert knowledge of the National Project Coordinator with input from the government and influential local leaders. Approximately 10 key informants were surveyed per country, with 1-3 individuals interviewed per district/region.
Organizational level:
- Varied by country, ranging from approximately 40-60 organizations.
- Selection Process: This survey was not a random sample or stratified sample of organizations. However, efforts were made to ensure the survey was representative of organizations in each country and the districts chosen for surveying. To ensure this, prior to implementing the survey a combination of existing information on women's fisheries organizations was used (e.g., registries, lists, expert knowledge), and where needed, background data was collected on the number of women's small-scale fisheries groups in each district. After this, background and existing data were collected, we used this estimate of the population or organizations in each district. Based on these estimates of the population of organizations, we applied the sampling protocol (described below) to determine the target number of surveys to be collected in each district. However, surveys were implemented opportunistically in the field with individual organizations that were available and accessible at the time of data collection. Inclusion criteria. To be included in the survey, organizations had to meet the following criteria: a. The group identifies as an organization, either formally registered or informal. b. Membership is majority (more than 50 percent) women. c. Women are an active part of the organization's leadership. d. The majority of group members are engaged in capture fishing and related activities including pre-harvest, processing, and trade of fish or fish products.
- The following sampling protocol was applied to the estimated number of women's small-scale fisheries groups in a district (always rounding up to a whole number): Fewer than 7 organizations: do not sample (i.e. survey all groups); - 8-10 organizations: sample 60 percent; - 11-14 organizations: sample 50 percent; - 15-20 organizations: sample 40 percent; - More than 20 organizations: sample 30 percent where possible, 20 percent as needed.

Data Collection Notes
Individual/Household level: All enumerators were trained at either an in-person training (led by the National Project Coordinator) or trained remotely over Zoom by an FAO consultant with in-person checks on training (i.e., ability to navigate survey software on mobile devices) before heading to the field for data collection. Enumerator teams collected data in each district or region. Interviews averaged 1-hour.
Focus Groups: All enumerators were trained at either an in-person training (led by the National Project Coordinator) or trained remotely over Zoom by an FAO consultant with in-person checks on training (i.e., ability to navigate survey software on mobile devices) before heading to the field for data collection. Enumerator teams collected data in each district or region. Interviews averaged 1-hour. Focus group questionnaires were in English, and responses were recorded in English although discussions typically took place in local languages. Focus groups were facilitated with approximately 10 participants by two trained enumerators, one asking questions and the other recording responses using a mobile device and the survey software application KoboCollect. Focus groups took between 1-2 hours.
Organizational level: Data was collected by a team of 14 trained enumerators with overall fieldwork coordination provided by the National Project Coordinator. Enumerators were trained through in-person training on how to use the survey software and were virtually trained (via Zoom) on the survey instrument and protocols for data collection. Each survey was conducted by one trained enumerator using a smartphone and the survey software Kobotoolbox to record responses. The survey format is a focus group discussion with 5-10 members of the same women’s organization. However, the survey was designed with mostly closed-style questions (e.g., multiple-choice to select all) to capture the characteristics of the group. Surveys were conducted in the local language but recorded in English. Each survey/Focus Group took 1-2 hours to complete. Pilot surveys were conducted in Tanzania and Ghana prior to data collection in other countries. During enumerator and National Project Coordinator training in each country, feedback was provided on minor changes to be made to the survey (e.g., regarding the language used or exhaustiveness of response options) to fit the national context in each country prior to data collection.

Data Processing
Data Editing
Individual/household level:
- Data editing took place at two stages: 1. Enumerators visually checked surveys entered before finalizing the survey entry. 2. The consultant analyzing the data for internal reports made visual checks of the data and needed corrections
Organizational level:
- Data was entered automatically (no manual data entry) as the survey was collected through the survey software Kobocollect. Data were visually checked in Excel for structure and completeness and during internal analysis (reports written) for the project. No manual data entry took place. Enumerators saved a draft of each completed survey and visually inspected it for accuracy and completeness before later finalizing it and uploading it to the server.
