QSEM examines how people in rural Myanmar make a living, what wider factors shape their ability to do so, and how the broader social and institutional features of community life affect people’s livelihoods choices and outcomes. In order to help deliver high quality monitoring and analysis of the Livelihoods and Food Security Trust Fund (LIFT) interventions, it aims to: develop a better understanding of the local context and comparison between regions; help understand the enabling and constraining factors that affect the effectiveness of various interventions and modalities supported by LIFT; and enable analysis to help LIFT respond to new challenges that emerge over time. It also aims to help develop local capacity to carry out social and economic research and analysis.
