Abstract
The integrated Household Survey (IHS) was carried out to get a complete and integrated data set needed to better understand the mechanisms of the adjustment process at the household and community level. The survey covered all the districts of Uganda and was a much more comprehensive survey than the 1989-90 household Budget Survey (HBS) from the point of view of area and subject coverage. IHS consisted of the main integrated survey, covering all socio-economic aspects of households, small-scale establishment and household enterprise survey and community survey at RC 1 level. The data collection for the survey was between March 1992 to March 1993 and it was conducted by the Social Dimensions of Adjustment (SDA) a project of the Statistics Department of the Ministry of Finance and Economic planning. The specific objectives of the IHS are:
1. To plan, design and conduct integrated household community and monitoring surveys and to prepare reports thereon providing a complete and integrated dataset needed to understand the mechanisms and effects of structural adjustment process at the household and community level.
2. To fill-in gaps in socio-economic data and build time-series data relating to key economic indicators to serve needs of planning for social and economic development of the country.
3. To build a permanent national household survey capability in the Statistics Department of the Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning to conduct continuing annual survey programs on important aspects of national economy.

Sampling
Sampling Procedure
The sampling design adopted for the survey is similar to what was used for the Integrated Household Survey (IHS) 1992/93 and the subsequent monitoring surveys. It is typically a stratified two-stage sampling design except in some districts where the sample was selected in three stages due to lack of an Enumeration Area (EA) frame.
The first stage sampling unit was the EA of the 1991 Population Census in districts with two-stage sampling design, and households as the second stage sampling units. For districts with a three stage design, the first stage sampling units was the parish, while the second stage sampling unit was the LC 1 (village) and the third stage sampling unit is the household. The survey included panel EA's and panel households from the 1992/93 Integrated Household Survey as well as new EA's and new households. In implementing this rather complicated design, services of a Survey Design Consultant were utilized.
The sampling frame is divided into fairly homogeneous strata in order to improve the efficiency of the sampling design. The first level of stratification is also designed to provide separate and reliable estimates of several parameters for the different domains of interest. In addition to national level estimates, separate estimates are desired for the urban and rural sectors of the statistical regions and 16 selected districts. All districts were sub-stratified into urban, other urban and rural areas (with the exception of Kampala, which is wholly urban). The district headquarters are designated as urban and other urban areas are the town boards, trading centers, etc. as defined during the 1991 Population Census.
