Kagera Health and Development Survey (KHDS)
KHDS is a longitudinal study that examines the long-term wealth dynamics of households and individuals in the Kagera region of Tanzania. The study involves a panel of households who were originally surveyed for four rounds between 1991 and 1994, then re-surveyed in 2004 and 2010. The main KHDS data have been complemented by a number of auxilliary data sets.
