This TA will develop quantitative and qualitative methodologies to assess poverty reduction impact of ADB-assisted operations at the county level. This will provide timely, relevant and quality statistical information useful for poverty-related analysis to support policy- and decision-making processes.

The information will be based on both survey data and administrative records. The main TA output will be a prototype of a county poverty monitoring system.
