The TLSS was part of the World Bank Living Standards Measurement Study (LSMS) and aimed to understand the welfare of Tajik individuals and households. Cross-sectional TLSSs were conducted on households in Tajikistan in 1999, 2003, and 2007. Of the 4,860 households surveyed in 2007, 1,500 of these were followed up in 2009.
