Francois moved on to conduct a monitoring visit in Hanoi this week. He conducted file reviews, looking at all the consent and assent forms, and checking a selection of the data forms against the data in REDCap. It is a great opportunity for the team to review what can be done to improve quality.
Other midway observation, 2 outdoor/1 indoor in SR, smooth, productive, fruitful sessions. Teachers were very cooperative, confident and students were very engaged, enthusiastic. A very promising program in school and impactful @m-bright-study.bsky.social
This week the monitoring visit moves to Hanoi. Some pictures from Hanoi, including mottos on the files that are giving us joy!
Monitoring visits can feel a bit daunting for teams, but hopefully this week with Francois has been a great opportunity to learn about research processes and procedures and to tighten these up for the country teams. Francois certainly enjoyed his time in Phnom Penh. Hanoi next!
Great to see that Francois is halfway through his mounting visit to Phnom Penh and Hanoi. Always great to spend time with the country teams working on improving procedures, documentation and processes.
Francois has travelled to Phnom Penh, Cambodia, for a monitoring visit. Read about this and all our other news on the M-BRIGHT website: www.qmul.ac.uk/wiph/centres...
