| Summary: | The World Bank is an international
leader in the methodology and implementation of household
surveys, working in close partnership with national
statistics offices (NSOs) around the world. This guidebook
is a consolidation of field-tested best practices to
implement, improve, and modernize nationally representative
multi-topic household surveys for monitoring welfare and
poverty. Offered as a reference guide for task team leaders
(TTLs) within the World Bank, the guidebook is intended as a
powerful tool for any survey practitioners (such as NSOs,
development partners, educators, researchers, and students)
implementing household surveys in low- and middle-income
countries. This guidebook starts with survey design, the
first step in any survey undertaking, with careful attention
given to minimizing non-sampling errors. Subsequent sections
are sampling; questionnaire modules, which form the core of
this guidebook; followed by geographic information systems
(GIS); computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI); and
finally, documentation and dissemination of the resulting data. |
