This guidebook presents an overview of the LSMS+ program, in the context of the increased momentum around improving data on men’s and women’s economic opportunities in surveys and provides operational guidance regarding individual‑disaggregated data collection in national household surveys. The thematic focus of the guidance is on asset ownership and labor‑related data collection, and it is anchored in the experience with the LSMS+ supported national household surveys and in the available international guidelines on survey data collection on these topics. The aim is to inform national statistical offices, survey practitioners and international partners regarding the importance of collecting self‑reported data on men and women, and the steps taken to effectively implement the recommended questionnaire modules in face‑to‑face surveys.
