The senior M&E officer from Mozambique's Fisheries Promotion Project provided feedback on using MPAT. He said that the MPAT survey gathered relevant baseline information on social, economic, and food security aspects of selected villages. He noted that the MPAT questionnaire is well-structured with logical and relevant questions tailored to the country's reality. Going forward, the project plans to extend the MPAT survey to all 30 of its geographic locations in 2014 to assess initial conditions and repeat the survey at medium-term and project end for comparative analysis.

comparative analysis of
the initial baseline
situation ( aspects ,
social , economic , food

structured and contains logical and relevant to the country's reality
questions . It consists of well prepared and structured questions .”
“The phase of training of enumerators is very delicate and decisive.”

4. Future plans
“The ProPesca has 30 geographic
locations , designated growth poles ,
which will be focused activities .
We plan to extend ( in 2014 ) the
survey to all sites and thus have a
comparative view of the initial state
conditions of households .
We will repeat the exercise when
assessing the medium - term and end
of project.”
