Documentation for the 1985 Cote d'Ivoire Living Standards Survey |
The following documentation about the 1985 Cote d'Ivoire Living Standards Survey (CILSS) is available for users to download in PDF format (some are available in both PDF and PostScript). In order to use the data from the 1985 CILSS, it is necessary to download supporting documentation, which includes Basic Information Document, questionnaires, Code Books, and various manuals. For a description of document formats, return to the page on Document Formats.
DECRG has posted below all materials regarding the 1985 CILSS which we currently have, and we expect that this will be more than sufficient to use the data. The Basic Information Document and questionnaires are the same as those found in the LSMS Information Table. Some of the PDF documents are big and some computers may not be powerful enough to view them. We divided such files into smaller parts so that readers will be able to read the documents. We also have put a compressed (zipped) version of the whole document for those who would like to download the entire file. Information on additional data collected in Cote d'Ivoire as well as other African Surveys is available at the Africa Household Survey web site.
