FIFA 2010 research into the economic legacy for micro-traders
GCRO conducted longitudinal research amongst a sample of small and micro-scale traders in Gauteng in order to assess the extent to which the 2010 FIFA World Cup had fulfilled their expectations for economic development. We administered a survey questionnaire to a group of respondents over 3 phases of the research. The baseline study of June 2010 was conducted with 209 respondents in order to measure their expectations. The number of respondents was whittled down to 150 in subsequent phases of the research in November 2010 and July 2011.
