Several factors require consideration in conducting a proper assessment of the methods used to determine individuals’ or households’ eligibility for social assistance. It proves important to relate data to the program design as closely as possible, using the eligibility criteria (income threshold, family composition, location, etcetera), and ideally, the assessment should use a range of measurements and consider the distribution over the whole population, often triangulating among data from administrative records, random sample household surveys, process evaluations, or impact evaluations while considering their limitations.
