We drove up north a bit to conduct focus groups in a village in Tokolili. I was observing today in preparation for a full day of conducting my own groups tomorrow. There were two groups - one of women who received cash transfers during the Ebola crisis and the other group was their children. They answered questions mostly about how they prioritized how they would spend the money they received. Food and school fees were the top two followed by medical expenses and house rehabilitation. Although they look very somber in the photos, both groups were very friendly and did smile on occasion. The children were 14-18 yrs old and the mothers/grandmothers were 20-71.
