Impact Evaluation Study
The baseline survey was conducted in 2015 and it is available here: https://microdata.worldbank.org/index.php/catalog/5730
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of installing an automated chlorination system at shared water points on water quality, child health, and costs in a low-income neighborhood in Dhaka Bangladesh. This survey is the follow assessment of water treatment practices, water management, illness related expenditures, water quality, and child health. There are three data sets, one with household survey data, one with chlorine residual data, and one with microbial water quality data. The follow up data sets include 7 rounds of data collection during the follow up period (up to 7 visits per household).
The unit of analysis for this data set is the household. The data can be re-shaped to have the unit of analysis be children under five years.

Sampling
The study was designed as a cluster randomized controlled trial, with shared water points randomly assigned to treatment or control groups. The study is sited in two low-income communities in/near Dhaka. Study site "A" has submersible pumps; each pump is connected to a 4000L tank system that provided water intermittently to 80-300 households. An additional 80 water points connected to the Dhaka municipal water system are enrolled from a low-income community in Dhaka, study site “B”. _x000D__x000D_Between October 2015 and December 2016, follow up surveys were conducted with the primary caregivers of children under five residing in all enrolled households to characterize demographics, education, employment, dwellings and assets, water quality, and diarrheal prevalence. The baseline survey was conducted for 920 eligible households with a total of 1,036 children under age five. Follow up surveys include new households that moved into the compounds/households accessing the enrolled water points.
12 households refused during follow up.
