Description

OVERVIEW This dataset contains data files and sample code for survey and interview data from a mixed method pathway clustering analysis of low income households in Bangalore, India. This fileset includes a guidance document on how the data was collected and how to interpret and use the data. The survey data was collected between September-October 2018 and the interview data was collected between May-July 2019. A team of 11 survey enumerators and researchers were involved in the data collection which was collected through a collaboration between the University of Cambridge and the Indian Institute for Human Settlements. Data collection for this project received ethical approval from both the Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge and Indian Institute for Human Settlements. This anonymised dataset is being released to allow full use by others, and to demonstrate our analysis methodology. Details of our methodology and analysis have been submitted to a journal for peer review.
