How to Collect and Analyse the Required Data

Data is collected using a survey. Possible question is:

Within the last 6 months have you heard religious leaders within your community teaching in support of: Issues of gender equality?

For analysis a simpe percentage should be taken of the number of respondents answering 'yes' to the question. Care should be taken in deciding whether this percentage applies to just those surveyed or whether it can be ascribed to the population as a whole. This will depend on the design of the survey and whether or not it was a representative sample of the population.

Disaggregate by

Gender, age group and faith group as standard. Depending on context and design the data could also be disaggregated by other relevent social identity markers.
