THSYUA aimed to understand urban inequality, with a specific focus on economic opportunities for young people in Tunisia. The study surveyed the members of over 4,000 urban households from the seven regions of Tunisia. Specific modules of the survey were administered to all individuals aged 15 and older in every sampled household, and additional questions were asked of household members aged 15 to 29 years. Data collection took place primarily in May and June 2012, with additional repeat visits made later in the year.
