All rural Union Councils (UCs) within these targeted districts are the survey universe. The survey provides benchmarks on the key indicators of the SUCCESS programme for evaluation at its conclusion. The objective of the baseline survey is to: a. Collect baseline data to prepare estimates of the income, sources of income, asset ownership, incidence, depth and severity of poverty and associated social characteristics of the poor (households) in the targeted programme districts. b. Assemble baseline information and data in targeted poor households’ access to and use of public services, such as access to water and sanitation, education, health, civil acts registration, etc. c. Compile baseline statistics on children’ nutrition status to examine wasting and stunting rates of children less than 5 years of age in the targeted districts. In each district a three-stage sampling has been used. In the first stage, the districts are represented roughly proportional to their number of UCs. In the second stage, within each selected UC, 4 revenue villages have been selected randomly. In the third stage, a fixed number of 50 households have been selected from each sampled revenue village. Within the sampled villages all households have been listed based on the poverty score bands of 0-23 and 24-100. From each sampled revenue village, 40 (80%) households were selected randomly and 10 (20%) more households from the PSC score of 0-23. The total sample is 1,600 households with sample population of 10,498
