Sampling for Results Monitoring Surveys

The Results Monitoring Surveys (RMS) Basic Sampling Guidance provides an overview of possible sampling approaches and considerations for implementing an RMS that allows for generalisations about the characteristics of that population without interviewing everyone.

An RMS sampling decision tree is available to serve as a methodological framework for RMS quality assurance as well as being a tool for colleagues with expert statistical / survey expertise to decide on most appropriate methodological approaches.

UNHCR colleagues can access the RMS intranet page to find additional resources and learn more about the RMS.
