The Ethiopian Socioeconomic Survey (ESS) is a collaborative project between the Central Statistics
Agency of Ethiopia (CSA) and the World Bank Living Standards Measurement Study- Integrated Surveys
on Agriculture (LSMS-ISA) team. The objective of the LSMS-ISA is to collect multi-topic panel

across countries, and improve survey methodologies and technology.
The specific objectives of the ESS are:
. Development of an innovative model for collecting agricultural data in conjunction with household data;
. Strengthening the capacity to generate a sustainable system for producing accurate and timely information on agricultural households in Ethiopia;
. Development of a model of inter-institutional collaboration between the CSA and relevant federal
and local government agencies as well as national and international research and development partners; and
. Comprehensive analysis of household income, well-being, and socio-economic characteristics of
households in rural areas and small towns
