  • Promoting WEE Through Edutainment Approaches SPEAKERS
    A Spoonful of Sugar: Promoting WEE Through Edutainment Approaches Date: September 12, 2018 Time: 9:00 – 10:00 am (EST) SPEAKERS Cathleen Tobin, Director of Consumer Insights & Engagement, Women's World Banking Roshaneh Zafar, Founder & Managing Director, Kashf Foundation Asmaa Guedira, Program Manager, Womanity Foundation MODERATOR Sean Southey, Chief Executive Officer, PCI Media QUESTIONS Roshaneh’s Presentation Q: How have you measured success of the TV series? A: We measure success of the TV series by the channel’s TRP ratings, viewers’ response on social media forums, the number of people who viewed the series on YouTube and other digital platforms, a third party impact assessment report, through journalist, blogger and media critic reviews, overall popularity amongst the general public and through various network recognition award ceremonies. Q: How expensive is the production of a TV series like these? A: It depends on the number of episodes, its star cast, the director and production house onboard, type of locations as well as TV channel requirements. Typically channels in Pakistan prefer a 25 to 30 episode TV serial and the production cost can vary approximately between $ 300,000 to $ 400,000. Q: How were you able to gather impact? Was the assessment qualitative in nature through FGDs or is there other method of assessing reach and impact? A: In order to evaluate the impact and reach of the TV series, Kashf uses both qualitative and quantitative methods including a literature review of articles, posts and comments made online. In Udaari’s case, Kashf commissioned a Third Party Evaluation to get a more holistic view.
