1. Session 8: Triangulation
Question and answer:
Ø Question 1: In your everyday domestic or
social life, think of three examples in which
you triangulate information
Ø Question 2: How might we triangulate
information in PIA
3. Triangulation
• A method of cross checking qualitative
information.
• Information about the same thing can be
collected in 3 sources to make sure the
information is reliable and not biased.
• Use multi-disciplinary team (i.e. people with
different skills, experience & view points) to
collect the information & mix techniques
Flexibility & innovation counts
4. Present results back to the
community
• This final stage involves presentation of the PIA
findings back to the community
• If a CBO or local group is involved in the project,
they should receive a copy of the results (and
the final report).
• This stage is a final opportunity for local people
to verify that the results are correct.
• A “feedback” workshop can also be an
opportunity to plan further work to improve the
project.
