Comparing food and cash transfers to the ultra poor in Bangladesh

The original survey, carried out in including Food for Education FFE program beneficiaries and nonbeneficiaries, covered households in 60 villages in 30 unions in 10 thanas, and schools in the same 30 unions from which the household sample was drawn. Ten thanas were first randomly selected with probability proportional to size PPS , based on thana-level population data from the census, and two FFE unions and one non-FFE union were selected per thana. From each union, two villages were randomly selected with PPS using village-level population data from the census.

A complete census of the households was then carried out in each of the selected villages, and ten households that had at least one primary-school-age child 6 to 12 years old were randomly selected in each village from the census list of households. IFPRI resurveyed the same households in , to construct the and panel dataset for households and schools, with the exception of households in two thanas, which were dropped from the survey.
