I. The Natural I. The Natural Disasters and Disasters and Climate Change Climate Change Sourcebook Sourcebook
a. Core module characteristics a. Core module characteristics The Natural Disasters and Climate Change survey module comprises the Core Module and the accompanying Sourcebook. The core module's general objective is to gather nationally relevant and internationally comparable socio-economic data over time, through a short set of fixed questions to be regularly included in existing household surveys and censuses.
a. Core module characteristics a. Core module characteristics
b. Sourcebook characteristics b. Sourcebook characteristics Covers other dimensions The Sourcebook will guide the collection of the impact and response to climate change at the household level, considering multiple dimensions, beyond the ones included in the core module. Different level of detail Short modules or stand-alone survey It will be accompanied by the corresponding The Sourcebook can be used as a source of additional questions for country-tailored short modules, or a stand-alone independent survey. guidelines
b. Sourcebook characteristics b. Sourcebook characteristics Periodicity and recall period Unit of analysis Primary respondent Sampling Depends on the HH surveys sampling strategy in each country. A person that can speak on behalf of all household members or the household as a singular unit. Depends on the HH surveys calendar in each country. We suggest a sample representative at the national, regional and urban/rural levels. Household and individuals. Every three five years could be a recommended periodicity for a stand-alone type survey. Example of Bangladesh: National coverage of the 12 main natural disaster-prone areas. Example of Nepal: National coverage, disaggregating information in the country's urban/rural and main ecological belts. Should be an adult household member knowledgeable about the household's composition and that has lived for at least five years in the locality. Recall period: the past 12 months. IMPORTANT: field testing.

Main source of drinking water/water scarcity 8. Primary type of toilet facility 9. Energy source for cooking 10.Internet conection/how stable it is? 11.Early Warning Information on disasters access
3. Climate change 3. Climate change perceptions perceptions 1. HH knowledge about climate change (definition and causes). 2. HH feelings of concern about climate change and its impacts. 3. Ecosystems HH use for livelihood threatened by climate change. 4. Climate Change threat perception in the present and the future. 5. Types of feelings when hearing or learning about future climate change impacts. 6. Primary sources of information about climate change. 7. HH perception on provincial/national government's actions to counter the impact of climate change and communication on climate change.
4. Impacts of natural disasters 4. Impacts of natural disasters 1. Type of natural disaster impacting the household in the past 12 months; 7. Essential services disrupted and the number of days; 2. Estimated economic value of the damages inflicted to the HH dwelling, agricultural area, farm assets, fishery assets and other productive assets; 8. Displacement: number of HH members displaced; 9. Gender-disaggregated question: consequences individuals suffered; 3. Health Impacts: people dead, missing, injured or sick; 10. Means to receive early information; 4. Impact on access to main roads; 11. Mechanisms used by the HH to reduce the damage during natural disasters; 5. Employment: household members that permanently lost their jobs, household members whose jobs were temporarily disrupted, workdays household members lose; 12. actions taken by the HH to recover after the natural disaster; 6. School attendance: children in the HH not attending school and days of school children in the HH lose; 13. Complementary displacement questions.
4. Impacts of Slow 4. Impacts of Slow- -Onset Climatic Events (SOE) Onset Climatic Events (SOE) 1. Type of SOE affecting the locality in the past 12 months; 2.
