Research Design & Methodological Support
End-to-end support in designing robust research studies across public health, social development, education, and community-based programmes. My work includes problem formulation, development of conceptual frameworks, selection of appropriate research designs, sampling strategies, tool development, ethical considerations, and field execution plans.
- Study design and protocol development
- Questionnaire and interview guide design
- Sampling and stratification frameworks
- Pilot testing and field manuals
- Monitoring and quality-assurance structures
Data Analysis
Rigorous data analysis using qualitative, quantitative, and spatial methods to generate meaningful insights from primary and secondary datasets.
Quantitative Analysis
- Descriptive and inferential statistics
- Survey analysis (NFHS, NSS, large datasets, primary surveys)
- Data cleaning, recoding, and preparation
- Cross-tabulations, regression models, survival analysis
Qualitative Analysis
- Codebook development
- Thematic and content analysis
- Transcription review and synthesis
- Interpretation grounded in social-science frameworks
Spatial & GIS Analysis
- District, block, and village-level GIS mapping
- Spatial joins and thematic mapping
- Visualisation of health, demographic, and socio-economic indicators
- Map layout, legends, and publication-ready outputs
Report Writing
Clear, structured, and evidence-based knowledge products for academic, policy, and programmatic audiences, written with conceptual clarity, methodological precision, and strong narrative flow so that complex findings are accessible and actionable.
- Research reports
- Baseline and endline assessments
- Policy briefs
- Project documentation
- Training modules
- Presentations and data visualisation materials
Project Support & Advisory
Ongoing advisory support for organisations implementing research-based projects, covering design reviews, analysis guidance, tool refinement, and documentation oversight.
- Reviewing tools and ensuring methodological rigour
- Supporting field teams during data collection
- Interpreting preliminary findings
- Strengthening reports and presentations
- Ensuring alignment with academic and ethical standards
Training & Capacity Building
Structured, academic-style training programmes for organisations, institutions, and student groups; designed to be conceptually grounded, rigorous, and practice-oriented so participants can independently design and conduct research studies.
- Fundamentals of research methodology
- Qualitative and quantitative techniques
- Study design and sampling
- Tool development and field preparation
- Data management and interpretation
- GIS and map interpretation (QGIS)
- Qualitative software training: NVivo, ATLAS.ti, MaxQDA
- Data visualisation tools: Power BI and Tableau
