Interviewer instructions
4.9 Migration for all persons

One of the characteristics of a human being is the tendency to move. There are many and varied reasons why people move. We shall only consider movements which result in crossing administrative boundaries as "Migration", that is, only if a person has moved from one district to another.


P-6: Where was [the respondent] born? (Birth place)

In this question, "Place" refers to district for cases within Zambia, or country for cases outside Zambia whether the person is Zambian or not. For persons born in Zambia, write the district of birth and then code appropriately. The district codes are provided in Appendix 1. Some people may not know the name of the district in which they were born, but they generally know the name of the Chief`s area. In such cases you should write Chief's area and then later on refer to the list of Chiefs by districts in Appendix 4, and find out which district the Chief belongs to. In case the person was born outside Zambia, write the name of the country in which he/she was born in the space provided and enter the country code in the boxes provided. The country codes are given in Appendix 5. Do not write the name of the district of a foreign country.
