It should be noted that an indicator may relate to more than one livelihood security outcome, <strong>for</strong><br />
example, nutritional status can reflect access to food, healthcare and education. The indicators<br />
should be evaluated against baseline levels, and be complemented by community defined criteria<br />
and indicators.<br />
World Bank Core Welfare Indicators Questionnaire (CWIQ)<br />
The CWIQ process represents a standardized, low cost (estimated cost US $30-60 per household)<br />
and ‘<strong>of</strong>f the shelf’ approach to basic poverty indicators. It uses a standardized data collection and<br />
analysis process which can be implemented by non-specialists with limited training. Using a<br />
standardized multiple choice questionnaire, it covers household assets, employment, health,<br />
education, water, etc., and focuses particularly on access, use and satisfaction levels. The welfare<br />
indicators include:<br />
• percentage reporting diminishing or increasing assets (<strong>land</strong> and livestock);<br />
• employment rates <strong>of</strong> men and women;<br />
• literacy levels;<br />
• access, enrolment and satisfaction with primary and secondary schools;<br />
• access to and satisfaction with medical services<br />
• child nutrition (percentage stunted, wasted and overweight)<br />
• access (distance) to safe water sources;<br />
• housing (quality and mean number <strong>of</strong> persons per room).<br />
