Sint Maarten After-school Programme Survey

INSTRUCTIONS

This survey is organized within the framework of the UNICEF NL Child Resilience and Protection Project that is supporting the development of a sustainable and equitable funding model for "After School Programmes" in Sint Maarten. The purpose of this project activity is to promote inclusion and equity in after-school programmes.

The information obtained through this survey will be used strictly for research purposes. This information will enable the expert team to develop a financing model for Safety Nets.

Please, note that because of the effect of COVID in 2020 and 2021, the data to be provided in this survey should be for the year 2019. The completion of this survey takes approximately 15 minutes (if all the information is available). Please, try to respond to as many questions as you can.
