Burkina Faso Enquête Harmonisée sur le Conditions de Vie des Ménages (BFA EHCVM)
The BFA EHCVM is part of the Living Standards Measurement Study - Integrated Surveys on Agriculture (LSMS-ISA) initiative, designed to improve the understanding of household and individual welfare, livelihoods, and smallholder agriculture in Africa. In Burkina Faso (West Africa), the EHCVM aimed to improve the quality, timeliness, and relevance of household-level agricultural statistics with an emphasis on sustainability, capacity building, and improving data collection methods. Two panel surveys were conducted with a nationally and regionally representative sample of households in urban and rural areas of Burkina Faso. The first (2018-2019) covered 7,010 households, and the second (2021-2022) followed up with 3,227 households from the first survey. Additional data collection included the EMC-18 experiment and longitudinal COVID-19 High-Frequency Phone Surveys with households who participated in the first panel survey.
