Abstract:
This paper discusses the methodological challenges on education for safe motherhood in Bangladesh with two interventions such as health monitoring and advocacy. This is a case study. Dhaka Ahsania Mission (a non-governmental organization (NGO) implemented these interventions at Hatibhanga Union (the lowest administrative unit) of Dewanganj Upazila in Jamalpur District in Bangladesh. Data were collected through a number of qualitative data collection methods on how local level monitoring and advocacy can ensure safe motherhood. The paper illustrated a number of methodological challenges that we faced during the data collection period. These challenges are analysed here into two main headings; commune level challenges and procedural level challenges. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate how these challenges limit the utilization of qualitative research tools and techniques on this particular case study. The research paper argues that the challenges were much more influential in terms of its contextual conditions rather than the original limitations of qualitative research.
