Cindy Cox of HarvestChoice sort of, kind of, maybe agrees with some parts of what we say in a recent post about the usability of data.
Although a new generation of development practitioners and analysts are increasingly taking advantage of so-called alternative data sources like we used in our paper, such resources are still underutilized in socio-economics. And without a story, data are meaningless.
Sure, and who has those stories? I suspect it’s not the people who can do the analysis.
