Socio-Economic/Monitoring Survey [hh/sems]
Since 2018, the Listening to the Citizens of Uzbekistan Survey (L2CU) has been implemented by the World Bank with the support of the UK Government. Around 1,500 households across the country regularly participate in the phone survey that is carried out every month. The L2CU collects information on public’s perception of overall socio-economic conditions and policy reforms, migration, employment, access to public service, household income, savings, food security, and coping mechanisms. That helps to inform the Government’s crucial decision-making for delivering essential social and economic reforms, implementing poverty reduction initiatives, and improving the well-being of citizens.

Sampling
The sample of the L2CU is a subsample of the 2018 baseline survey. The 2018 baseline survey was conducted face-to-face interviews with a nationally and urban/rural representative sample of 4,000 households from 200 PSU (mahallas – lowest administrative unit) in Uzbekistan. The baseline survey took the two-stage sampling approach, and the sample was stratified for all 14 regions, taking into consideration settlement type (urban and rural) within each region, except for Tashkent city which fully refers to urban area. As a result, 27 strata were formed where 1 stratum was dedicated to Tashkent city and 26 strata to 13 regions. In the first stage, 200 PSU were selected with probability proportion to the population size of 27 strata and in the second stage, 20 households are randomly selected in each PSU. In the baseline, households were asked to provide phone number of their most knowledgeable member for future contact during short phone interviews (CATI - Computer Assisted Telephone Interview).
After completion of the 2018 baseline survey, L2CU monthly interviewers began regularly calling a randomly selected panel of 1,500 households over the phone to conduct short interviews, following a set monthly schedule agreed to by the participating household. For the phone L2CU survey, 7-8 households are randomly selected in each of 200 clusters in the Baseline.
To ensure that non-response in the first round (and attrition in subsequent rounds) did not affect the required sample size for survey representativeness, households that refused to participate were replaced with other households drawn from the same PSU in the baseline data.
In each round of L2CU Phone Survey, sampling weights from the L2CU Baseline Survey are adjusted to make the phone survey sample (i) comparable to the baseline sample, and (ii) representative at the strata level. Note that if the target of 1500 households are not reached, or more households are interviewed, sampling weights are automatically corrected when adjusting for strata population.
Survey instrument
The questionnaire was administered in local languages (i.e. Uzbek and Russian) with about varying length (about 20 minutes).
