Much of the early work on poverty was highly quantitative: ... It
became increasingly clear, however, that while numbers are
essential for policy and monitoring purposes, it is also important
to understand people's perception of poverty and their mechanisms
for coping with poverty and other situations of extreme economic
and social stress. Researchers have recognized over the past few
years that quantitative analysis of the incidence and trends in
poverty, while essential for national economic development
planning, must be complemented by qualitative methods that help
planners and managers understand the cultural, social, political,
and institutional context within which projects are designed and
implemented. This report is based on a two-day workshop held in
June 1998, where outside research specialists and World Bank staff
discussed the importance of integrating these research methods. The
participants reviewed experiences in the use of mixed-method
approaches in Bank research and project design. This report is a
result of those discussions. The report examines the need for
integrated research approaches in social and economic development,
presents case studies of integrated approaches in practice, and
talks about lessons learned.
