<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Why the CPA?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The CPA is a unique methodology that provides a participatory multi-level and mixed method research design, which builds from a protection theory framework, and a people-centered system of analysis, integrated programming and monitoring of the causal factors of a population\u2019s needs and problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can deliver the same projects as you do now, but with added value in terms of evidence and analysis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
