Bangladesh - Clustering for global market access: Follow-up phone survey

This phone survey dataset is a follow-up to the Clustering for Global Market Access Survey, a two-round panel of 1,222 shrimp farmers in the southern Bangladesh districts of Bagerhat, Khulna, and Satkhira. The objective of the phone survey was to investigate cluster survival (following the end of the cluster implementation project), and what characteristics and dynamics distinguish surviving clusters from those that do not. This dataset also forms part of a mixed-methods undertaking that included qualitative case studies among cluster farmers.
</p>
Data was collected at the cluster level between May-June 2025, with a "cluster" being a set of 20-25 farmers per village, defined by the cluster organizer. The respondents are cluster leads (presidents or secretaries) in 68 shrimp farming clusters as covered in the previous in-person panel rounds - 60 operated by the Department of Fisheries (DoF), and 4 each by the Bangladesh Shrimp and Fish Foundation (BSFF) and a private sector actor.

Kenya - Rural Credit, Food Security, and Resilience: An Empirical Evaluation

This dataset contains replication data and code for the study "Rural Credit, Food Security, and Resilience: An Empirical Evaluation from Kenya." The study draws on panel data from three rounds of household surveys conducted between 2017 and 2020 in Machakos County, Kenya, as part of a randomized controlled trial evaluating the impact of two credit products—Risk Contingent Credit (RCC) and standard Traditional Credit (TC). A total of 1,053 households were evenly randomized into RCC, TC, and control groups.</p>

Surveys were administered using structured, pretested questionnaires. The baseline and midline surveys were conducted through face-to-face interviews, while the endline survey—delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic—was conducted via phone interviews. All survey waves were implemented electronically using computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) tools.</p>

Each survey wave included detailed modules on household demographics, food consumption and expenditures, access to and use of financial services, credit constraints, and experiences of shocks and coping mechanisms.</p>

The RCC intervention featured an index-based insurance component triggered by low rainfall, modeled using historical dekadal rainfall data and Monte Carlo simulations. The study employed a multistage, stratified sampling design targeting rural households across selected sub-counties, in collaboration with Equity Bank and local administrators.</p>

This dataset enables replication of the study’s findings and supports further research on the role of credit product design in enhancing food security and resilience among smallholder farmers in semi-arid regions.

Assessing Multicountry Programs Through a Reach, Benefit, Empower, Transform Lens

This dataset accompanies Quisumbing et al. (2023), <a href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gfs.2023.100685">Assessing multicountry programs through a “Reach, Benefit, Empower, Transform” lens </a>
 (Global Food Security, 37, 100685). It contains the final cleaned data and do-files used to reproduce the study’s analyses of the JP RWEE program in Ethiopia, Niger, Nepal, and Kyrgyzstan. </p>

The surveys measure women’s empowerment outcomes using pro-WEAI indicators, which apply stricter adequacy cut-offs than A-WEAI and extend beyond agriculture to other livelihood activities. The dataset retains the A-WEAI structure and weights to compute empowerment scores, empowerment status, and intrahousehold inequality measures. </p>

Data include two survey rounds in Ethiopia (baseline Dec 2016–Jan 2017; endline Feb–Mar 2019; 750 households, 723 panel cases) and Niger (baseline Feb–Mar 2016; endline Oct–Nov 2020; 580 households at baseline with replacement sampling for attrition), and one round each in Nepal (Jan–Feb 2021; 1,300 households and Kyrgyzstan (Jan–Feb 2021; 1,946 households. Each country sample includes a comparison group constructed using methods tailored to the local context. Because data collection was undertaken by external partners, IFPRI holds only the cleaned datasets and code used for the analyses.

Tanzania, United Republic of - FRESH End-to-End Approach Evaluation: Baseline Survey

The FRESH end-to-end approach evaluation is a longitudinal cluster-randomized controlled trial designed to assess the effectiveness of a package of demand-, supply-, and food-environment–focused interventions on vegetable production and fruit and vegetable intake among women of reproductive age in Northern Tanzania. The trial is implemented in 33 villages across five districts in the Arusha and Kilimanjaro regions.

To better understand community-level factors that may influence agricultural production and dietary intake, a quantitative village survey was conducted in each study village with knowledgeable key informants (e.g., village leaders, village chairpersons, village executive secretaries). The survey collected information on local infrastructure; community groups; agricultural, health, nutrition, and development programs active in the village; transportation availability; electricity access; shocks or unexpected events experienced in the past five years; and seed systems. These data provide essential contextual information to interpret household- and individual-level outcomes within the FRESH end-to-end approach evaluation.

Pakistan - Social Accounting Matrix

The Pakistan Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) 2020-21 provides a comprehensive, economy-wide dataset linking production, factor incomes, institutions, and external accounts at the national level, with an integrated hydrological component. Developed by IFPRI and IWMI, the dataset extends the standard SAM framework to capture interlinkages between water, agriculture, and the broader economy, supporting policy analysis and modeling of water-food-economy interactions.

The 2020-21 Pakistan SAM is developed based on existing SAM frameworks to update the Pakistan national SAM from 2013–14, tying often to the structure of Nexus SAMs developed by IFPRI under its NEXUS Program (see <a href="https://www.ifpri.org/project/nexus-project/">https://www.ifpri.org/project/nexus-project/</a>).  It incorporates revised estimates across production, factor, and institutional accounts to better represent Pakistan’s water use, agricultural systems, and economic flows.</p>

The hydrology data is updated using data compiled from sources which include the recent tube-well census in Punjab, surface water flow data, meteorological data, water storage levels and capacity, water efficiency and climate data.  The hydrology data is mainly used to update IFPRI’s Computable General Equilibrium- Water (CGE-W) model.

The SAM is structured to include:</p>

1. Activities and commodities disaggregated by major sectors (agriculture, industry, services) </p>
2. Factors of production, including labor (by skill and sector), land, and capital</p>

3. Institutions, including rural and urban households, enterprises, and government</p>

4. Accounts for taxes, savings-investment, and rest of the world, allowing macroeconomic closure and inter-institutional flow analysis</p>

Senegal - C’est la Vie: Mixed Impacts of an Edutainment Television Series in West Africa

The replication data contain the datasets and analysis code files used to reproduce the results presented in the study evaluating the impact of the edutainment television series C’est la Vie! in rural Senegal. The data originate from a cluster randomized controlled trial conducted in 120 villages in the Kaolack and Kolda regions, targeting adolescent girls and young women aged 14–34. The intervention involved screening episodes of the television series through community film clubs, with some treatment arms also receiving pedagogical kits with post-screening discussions and workshops. </p>

The dataset includes baseline, midline, and endline survey data collected from participants to measure outcomes related to violence against women and girls (VAWG), sexual and reproductive health (SRH), and related knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors. Additional variables capture exposure to the intervention, participation in film clubs, and contextual household and demographic characteristics. The replication files also include statistical code used to generate the tables and figures in the article and to estimate treatment effects across different study arms. </p>

Together, these materials allow other researchers to replicate the empirical results and verify the experimental evaluation of the edutainment intervention’s effects on knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral outcomes in rural West Africa.

Sri Lanka - BRIGHT Integrated Household Survey

The BRIGHT Multi-Thematic Household Survey of Sri Lanka 2025 is the first nationally representative, multi-thematic household survey implemented in Sri Lanka. The survey was conducted as part of the Building Resilient and Inclusive Growth and Holistic Transformation (BRIGHT) project under the CGIAR Research Initiative on Poverty Reduction, Livelihoods, and Jobs, led by IFPRI. The survey was designed to generate urgently needed evidence on the socioeconomic consequences of Sri Lanka’s 2022–2023 economic crisis and to inform policy options for economic recovery, improved livelihoods, and strengthened resilience. </p>

Data were collected from male and female members of 6,850 households across all provinces and districts of Sri Lanka between November 2024 and March 2025. The BRIGHT survey is representative of urban, rural, and estate populations, as well as each of the country’s nine provinces and 25 districts. National and subnational representativeness was achieved through a three-stage cluster sampling design and the construction of household-level survey weights using detailed subnational population data from the Department of Census and Statistics (DCS) of Sri Lanka. </p>

The survey covers household food and non-food expenditure, monetary poverty, education, health, housing, assets, employment and livelihoods, farm and non-farm businesses, women’s empowerment, psychological wellbeing, nutrition knowledge and anthropometry, social protection, food, water and energy insecurity, debt, migration, climate change adaptation, and exposure to shocks, among other topics. By integrating these topics into a single nationally representative dataset, the survey provides a comprehensive and rich source of information to investigate a wide range of welfare indicators. </p>
The survey is also highly innovative, as it incorporates newly developed modules on nutrition knowledge, water and energy security, and food consumption, and a number of survey experiments around gender-specific newly designed modules on farming, fishing, and livestock practices

Bangladesh - One Nutrition Coverage Survey (ONCS)

The One Nutrition Coverage Survey (ONCS) 2025 is a cross-sectional household survey conducted in four districts of Bangladesh, Dhaka, Rangpur, Sylhet, and Khulna, to assess the coverage of nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions across multiple population groups.</p>

The survey employed a stratified multi-stage sampling design. Within each district, urban and rural areas were treated as separate strata. In the first stage, enumeration areas (EAs) were selected using probability proportional to size (PPS). In the second stage, households within each selected EA were randomly sampled.</p>

A total of 3,280 households were randomly selected. Within sampled households, interviews were conducted with heads of households; all women of reproductive age (15–49 years), including married adolescent women aged 10–14 years; all children aged 0–9 years; and all adolescent boys and girls aged 10–19 years. To ensure sufficient sample size for estimating coverage indicators among currently pregnant women, two additional households with pregnant women per primary sampling unit (where available) were included as a learning sample. These households were not randomly selected and are excluded from coverage estimates for other life stages and household-level indicators. </p>

The survey collected data on nutrition-specific interventions, including antenatal care, micronutrient supplementation, breastfeeding and infant and young child feeding (IYCF) counseling, and growth monitoring. It also assessed nutrition-sensitive interventions such as water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH); large-scale food fortification; nutrition-sensitive agriculture; and social protection programs. </p>

The ONCS dataset provides district-level estimates of intervention coverage and serves as a standardized tool to support monitoring, program evaluation, and policy planning in the nutrition sector.

Ethiopia - Strengthen PSNP Institutions and Resilience Phase II (SPIR II): Endline Survey

This dataset is part of the IMPEL (Implementer-Led Evaluation and Learning) evaluation of SPIR-II (Strengthen PSNP Institutions and Resilience), a randomized controlled trial initiated in 2022 to assess interventions designed to improve livelihoods, resilience, food security, and nutrition among rural households vulnerable to food insecurity in Ethiopia. The study covers 234 kebeles assigned across three treatment arms comparing standard Productive Safety Net Programme (PSNP) transfers with combinations of SPIR II livelihood programming, nurturing care groups (NCGs), and targeted cash grants. </p>

Specifically, this dataset contains data from the SPIR-II endline survey, the three-year follow-up round of the trial conducted between May and June 2025. The survey was conducted approximately three months earlier than originally planned to avoid overlap with the anticipated nationwide rollout of livelihood grants under the PSNP by the Government of Ethiopia. The survey attempted to reinterview all 3,015 households enrolled at baseline across 15 woredas in the Amhara and Oromia regions. Interviews were conducted with the primary female respondent, and child anthropometric measurements were also collected. The evaluation follows the same cohort of index children over time to assess adherence to age-appropriate infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices and child growth dynamics. A total of 2,902 households were successfully reinterviewed, corresponding to a 98 percent household follow-up rate.

Myanmar - Household Welfare Survey (MHWS), Round 9

The nineth round of the Myanmar Household Welfare Survey (MHWS)–a nationwide phone panel consisting of 11,865 households–was implemented between July, 2025 and November, 2025. The objective of the survey was to collect data on a wide range of household and individual welfare indicators–including wealth, livelihoods, unemployment, food insecurity, diet quality, health shocks, and coping strategies–in a country exceptionally hard hit by conflict, severe economic collapse, and several damaging waves of COVID-19. The respondents interviewed in the MHWS were purposely selected from a large phone database aimed at being representative at the region/state level and urban/rural level in Myanmar. A novel sampling strategy in combination with the development of household and population weights allows for estimates that are nationally, regionally, and urban/rural representative.
