Living conditions among people with disability in Nepal

Abstract

This report is from the National study on living conditions among people
with disabilities carried out in Nepal in 2014-2015. The study was carried
out as a household survey with two-stage stratified
sampling, including a
screening/listing procedure using the Washington Group on Disability
Statistics 6 questions, one Household questionnaire administered to
households with (Case HHs) and without disabled members (Control
HHs), one Individual Case questionnaire administered to individuals who
were found to qualify as being disabled in the screening (Case
individuals), and an Individual Control questionnaire administered to
matched non-disabled individuals in the Control HHs (Control individuals).
The study covers a range of indicators on level of living, such as socioeconomic
indicators, economic activity, income, ownership and
infrastructure, health (including reproductive health), access to health
information, access to services, education, access to information, social
participation, and exposure to discrimination and abuse (see all
questionnaires in Appendix).
