The Mozambique Land Tenure Regularization evaluation includes the following data sets available for restricted access:
(1) Rural Household Survey (Panel; Cross-sectional): The endline for a panel household survey in rural areas was conducted in November 2019 - January 2020, the baseline for which was conducted in Mecufi district September - October 2011, and in Malema district April - May 2012 by Michigan State University (MSU). A sample of 1,417 households was drawn at baseline using a two-stage sampling process. Survey topics included a land parcel roster (with modules on parcel characteristics, structures, acquisition/documentation, land rights, perception of risk, rental activity, and investment), and household-level information about socio-economic status (assets, income, agricultural productivity, and access to credit), land transfers, and perceptions/knowledge of land rights.
(2) Urban Household Survey (Panel; Cross-sectional): The endline for a panel household survey in urban areas was conducted in January - March 2020, the baseline for which was conducted October - December 2010 by MSU. A sample of 1,690 households was drawn using a similar two-stage sampling process to the rural household survey. The respondent selection, questionnaire topics, and survey length were for the most part the same across both rural and urban study areas. At endline, additions for the urban survey instrument (compared to the rural instrument) include modules on municipal land use planning and service delivery, and survey experiments on land transfers and community decision-making.
(3) Rural Primary Female Decision Maker (PFDM) Survey (Cross-sectional): In cases where the respondent for the household survey was a male head of household, a supplemental survey was conducted with the PFDM in the household. This survey was conducted at the same time as the endline rural household surveys and included additional modules to investigate women’s experiences with local governance, conflict, inter-household decision-making, and engagement with land markets. 695 women in rural areas were surveyed at endline
(4) Urban PFDM Survey (Cross-sectional): As in rural areas, a supplemental survey was conducted with the PFDM in 850 households at endline in urban areas. This survey was conducted at the same time as the endline urban household surveys, and the respondent selection, questionnaire topics, and survey length were largely the same across both rural and urban study areas. As with the household survey, additions for the urban PFDM survey instrument (compared to the rural instrument) included modules on municipal land use planning and service delivery, and survey experiments on land transfers and community decision-making.
