This is useful, thanks! And yes - forgot to mention the NSS.

[datameet] [Seeking Help] Income and Consumption Data for Developing Nations

2020-07-10 Thread Hemanth Chakravarthy

Hey everyone!

Hope everyone's well. 

I'm looking for datasets with household-level labor, income, and 
consumption data for developing nations. Ideally, I'm looking for panels 
with microdata with an occupation/kind of labor variable, an income unit, 
and a consumption unit set in the developing world. In particular, datasets 
in Bangladesh or, more broadly, South Asia would be really useful. 

So far, I have the Townsend Thai Project, the VDSA (Village Dynamics in 
South Asia), the IndiaSTAT datasets (though these are macro), the Rural 
Economic and Demographic Survey (REDS), the India Human Development Survey 
(IHDS), the Bangladesh Integrated Household Survey (BIHS), and the SHAHAR 
Project Baseline Survey. Please share any datasets (openly available or 
available on request) that you think are similar to these.

Thanks!
