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.CC BY 3.0 IGOHOUSEHOLD SURVEYDEMOGRAPHIC AND HEALTH SURVEYSURVEY DESIGNDATA COLLECTIONSAMPLING DESIGNGENDER PERSPECTIVEGEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMCOMPUTER-ASSISTED PERSONAL INTERVIEWINGCapturing What MattersReportWorld BankEssential Guidelines for Designing Household Surveys10.1596/36763
