A Guidebook on Quality Research

Ponlok Chomnes Program would like to share “A Guidebook on Quality Research” co-developed with the Program’s partners, including the Strategic Partners (CDRI, CICP, CKS, CPS, and FF), the Gender Equality, Disability, and Social Inclusion (GEDSI) Consortium (CDPO, GADC, and WPM), the Ponlok Chomnes team, and The Asia Foundation’s Evaluation and Learning Unit. 

This guidebook aims to support Cambodian research organisations and their affiliated researchers in conducting high-quality, inclusive, and context-relevant research that contributes to evidence-informed policymaking and program design. Developed for the Ponlok Chomnes research network, this guide offers practical guidance on conducting ethical and methodologically sound research. It is intended as a reference for Ponlok Chomnes Program Partners to support strong research design and implementation.

This guidebook starts with a quick glimpse into different stages of the research process. Then the guidebook delves into details on each stage of the research process. The guidebook is organised into nine major sections, each covering a key aspect of conducting quality research.
