The anecdotal response to invitations and attendance of the various meetings and events was positive; however, a more objective assessment of the level and impact of engagement and suggestions for improvement was sought in order validate the whole systems approach, the engagement strategy, and perceived impact of the project overall. Initially, quantitative data was collected via an online survey to produce a general overview of the response to the CEDaCI project and the level of stakeholder engagement. This was followed with a more comprehensive qualitative research using semi-structured interviews to gather deeper insights. (See Supplementary Materials for the list of questions).
