GEAS Training Suite: Qualitative Methods
The Training Suite: Module 2
Phase 1 of the GEAS employed qualitative methods to better understand the gendered lives of adolescents around the world. These data were used to inform the measures that would later be used in Phase 2. In Phase 2, a COVID-19 sub study was conducted which included focus group discussions to understand the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the daily lives of adolescents.
