The online launch of the latest wave of the Life in Transition Survey and associated report, organised by EBRD in collaboration with the World Bank is imminent.
In order to inform its operations, every few years, the EBRD conducts the Life in Transition Survey (LiTS) – a major survey of households and individuals in the economies where it invests – in collaboration with the World Bank.
In the second half of 2022 and the first half of 2023, the fourth round of the Life in Transition Survey (LiTS IV) was carried out in 37 economies – 33 economies in the EBRD regions, plus Algeria, Belarus, Germany and Russia. The survey was conducted face to face, with 1,000 randomly selected individuals in each economy answering questions about their income, employment, education, attitudes, beliefs and recent experiences.
The EBRD is promising to make the micro data and report publicly available on ebrd.com.
