SurveyCTO Presentation Series: World Bank Researchers Teach How to Create High-Frequency Check Dashboards

The World Bank’s Development Impact Evaluation (DIME) group generates high-quality data and research to transform development policy and help reduce extreme poverty. It develops customized data and evidence ecosystems to produce actionable information and recommend specific policy pathways to maximize impact.

An important part of the work at DIME is producing research resources and tools to improve the quality of development research and impact evaluation globally. These tools are available publicly in service to researchers worldwide. In this webinar, we will hear about the high-frequency check (HFC) dashboard guide that our presenters Borui Sun and Erin Kelley, together with other researchers at DIME, have been working on for about a year. This guide was created to give researchers a systematic and standardized template for tracking and monitoring survey data via high-frequency checks.

Borui Sun is a Research Assistant in the DIME group where she provides survey collection and data analysis support for a variety of projects that cover topics in small firm growth, agricultural technology adoption, job search and gender biases.

Erin Kelley is an Economist in the DIME group and her research work focuses on firm growth, refugee welfare, and technology adoption using randomized field experiments. She has ongoing research projects in Bangladesh, Kenya, and India.
