In the lecture, you are asked to imagine this scenario: you are working in the Kosi River Basin in India, trying to eliminate polio. You do not live in the region, and the people of the area are not familiar with the polio vaccine.
After you watch the video, consider these questions:
-
What data would you need to collect in order to understand what kind of impacts you are having?
-
How would you collect this data?
-
How would you use this data?
Please share your thoughts in the discussion.
