The Department of Economic and Social Affairs o f the United Nations Secretariat is a vital interface between global policies in the economic, social and environmental spheres and national action. The department works in three main interlinked areas: (i) it compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic, social and environmental data and information on which States Members of the United Nations draw to review common problems and to take stock of policy options; (ii) it facilitates the negotiations of Members States in many intergovernmental bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or emerging global challenges; and (iii) it advises interested Governments on the ways and means of translating policy frameworks developed in United Nations conferences and summits into programmes at the country level and, through technical assistance, helps build national capacities. iPreface The main purpose of the handbook is to include in one publication the main sample survey design issues that can conveniently be referred to by practicing national statisticians, researchers and analysts involved in sample survey work and activities in countries. Methodologically sound techniques that are grounded in statistical theory are used in the handbook, implying the use of probability sampling at each stage of the sample selection process. A well designed household survey which is properly implemented can generate necessary information of sufficient quality and accuracy with speed and at a relatively low cost. The contents of the handbook can also be used, in part, as a training guide for introductory courses in sample survey design at various statistical training institutions that offer courses in applied statistics, especially survey methodology. In addition, the handbook has been prepared to complement other publications dealing with sample survey methodology issued by the United Nations, such as the recent publication on Household Surveys in Developing and Transitional Countries and the series under the National

Household Survey Capability Programme (NHSCP).

More specifically, the objectives of the Handbook are to: a. Provide, in one publication, basic concepts and methodologically sound procedures for designing samples for, in particular, national-level household surveys, emphasizing applied aspects of household sample design; b. Serve as a practical guide for survey practitioners in designing and implementing efficient household sample surveys; c. Illustrate the interrelationship of sample design, data collection, estimation, processing and analysis; d. Highlight the importance of controlling and reducing nonsampling errors in household sample surveys. While having a sampling background is helpful in using the handbook, other users with a general knowledge of statistical and mathematical concepts should also be able to use and apply the handbook with little or no assistance. This is because one of the key aims of the handbook is to present material in a practical, hands-on format as opposed to stressing the theoretical aspects of sampling. Theoretical underpinnings are, however, provided when necessary. It is expected that a basic understanding of algebra is all that is needed to follow the presentation easily and to apply the techniques. Accordingly, numerous examples are provided to illustrate the concepts, methods and techniques. In the preparation of this handbook the United Nations Statistics Division was assisted by Mr. Anthony Turner, Sampling Consultant, who drafted chapters 3 to 5 and finally reviewed the consolidated document. Mr. Ibrahim Yansaneh, Deputy Chief of Cost of living Division of the International Civil Service Commission, drafted chapters 6 and 7 and Mr. Maphion Jambwa, Technical Adviser, Southern African Development Community Secretariat, drafted chapter 9. The draft chapters were reviewed by an Expert Group Meeting organized, in New York, by the iiUnited Nations Statistics Division from 3 to 5 December 2003. List of experts is given in the

Appendix.
