# Analysis of Household Surveys
A five-session workshop for PhD students and junior faculty, Department of
Economics, University of Ghana.
The workshop teaches the analysis of household survey data end to end —
from raw survey files to a reproducible result — working in Python with
Ghana's Living Standards Surveys and the LSMS-ISA panels.

## A note on data
This repository contains **no survey data**. The underlying microdata
belongs to the national statistics offices and the World Bank, and its
terms do not permit redistribution. Derived extracts are staged on the
workshop hub at `/srv/data/extracts` and are read from there by the
notebooks. Please keep it that way — `.gitignore` is set up to help.
