OBJECTIVES

• Assess the existing status of implementation of
  ICDS in terms of coverage, out reach,
  coordination, convergence, and innovations
• Study the differences in implementation in
  rural, urban tribal, NGO and WB projects
• Identify gaps and problems in the implementation
  of ICDS
• Find out the perception of community and local
  bodies and support extended by them
• Ascertain inter-linkages of ICDS with other
  development programmes and
• Assess the benefits of ICDS on selected outcome
  indicators

UNIVERSE SAMPLE SELECTION
Universe

• Sample was drawn only from blocks which were
  operational as on 01- 04- 2000 i.e. 4200
  projects 3177 rural, 273 urban and 750 tribal).
  
• For the Study, 150 ICDS projects are selected as
  a sample i.e. roughly 4 of the total universe.

Sample
1st StageStratified Sampling Technique to decide
no. of projects statewise 2nd Stage
StratifiedPurposive ( Wherever, there was even
one project of rural, urban tribal category,
purposively selected). Selection of Districts
- Districts with maximum number of projects
selected Selection of Projects - Projects
with maximum number of AWWs selected Selection
of AWC villages - Randomly and at least from
two Supervisory circles Selection of
Beneficiaries - Randomly with the help of
AWCs record
