Integrated Household Survey, Wave 2, 2011 - Sierra Leone

Abstract
---------------------------

The general aim of the Sierra Leone Integrated Household Survey (SLIHS) was to provide statistics on the living conditions of the people of Sierra Leone and to provide inputs to the government of Sierra Leone's policy making process. The study used consumption as the starting measure for household well-being and followed the standard in poverty analysis for developing countries. The IHS was prepared as joint work by Statistics Sierra Leone (SSL) and the World Bank Poverty Reduction and Economic Management Unit. SSL had the major responsibility of conducting the survey. The first chapter presents an overview of poverty, demographics, livelihoods, education, and health in Sierra Leone and measures progress in these indicators compared to the 2003 poverty assessment. The work was conducted as part of the poverty update and it included a series of policy notes with more detailed analysis. The objectives of the IHS include:

1. Provide benchmark poverty indicators against which the successes of the agenda for change (PRSP II) could be measured.
2. To measure the incidence of poverty alongside other indicators include providing information on patterns of household's consumption and expenditure at a greater level of disaggregation.
3. To provide data for the compilation of national accounts and computation of the Consumer Price Index (CPI)
4. In combination with earlier data this will give a data base for national and state planning and for the estimation of consumption as a proportion of household production.

Sampling procedure

The study was spread over a 12 month period in order to ensure a continuous recording of household consumption, expenditures and changes occurring thereof in 2011. A total of 9,671 Enumeration areas were selected and about 6,757 households were interviewed all over the country. The analytic work underlying this survey was produced in collaboration between Statistics Sierra Leone (SSL) and the World Bank. SSL adopted the local councils as the primary domain of study, this provided measures of levels of poverty and welfare at national and sub-national levels therefore addressing the recent strengths and weaknesses of government policies and programs. The census Enumeration area was used as a primary sampling unit (PSU) for the 2011 survey. The survey used a two-stage sampling design from the 2004 census frame. At the first stage 9,671 enumeration areas were selected. At the second stage, 85 Households per EA were selected the statistics obtained from the sampling frame have no difference compared to the census report. This means that the sampling frame covers the whole country.

摘要
---------------------------
本西非利昂综合家庭调查（SLIHS）的总体目标在于提供关于西非利昂人民生活状况的统计数据，并为西非利昂政府决策过程提供参考。研究以消费作为衡量家庭福祉的起始指标，并遵循发展中国家贫困分析的标准。该综合家庭调查由西非利昂统计局（SSL）与世界银行减贫与经济管理单元联合完成。SSL承担了主要的责任来执行这项调查。第一章概述了西非利昂的贫困、人口统计、生计、教育与卫生状况，并对比2003年贫困评估，对上述指标的发展进程进行了衡量。该研究作为贫困状况更新的一部分进行，并包含了一系列政策简报，提供了更深入的分析。综合家庭调查的目标包括：
1. 提供基准贫困指标，以此衡量变革议程（PRSP II）的成功。
2. 测量贫困发生率，同时提供更细粒度的家庭消费和支出模式信息。
3. 为编制国家账户和计算消费者价格指数（CPI）提供数据。
4. 结合先前数据，这将为国家及地方规划提供数据库，并估算消费在家庭生产中的比例。

研究覆盖了12个月的时间，以确保对2011年家庭消费、支出及其变化进行连续记录。总共选择了9,671个普查区，并在全国范围内对约6,757户家庭进行了访谈。此调查背后的分析工作由西非利昂统计局（SSL）与世界银行合作完成。SSL采用了地方议会作为主要的研究领域，这为国家级和次国家级的贫困和福利水平提供了衡量标准，从而解决了政府政策和计划近期以来的优势和劣势。普查普查区被用作2011年调查的主要抽样单元（PSU）。调查使用了从2004年普查框架中抽取的两阶段抽样设计。在第一阶段，选择了9,671个普查区。在第二阶段，每个普查区选择了85户家庭。从抽样框架中获取的统计数据与普查报告中的统计数据没有差异。这意味着抽样框架覆盖了整个国家。
