Question post text

Interviewer instructions

This question follows your respondent answer to 3.1 above. You should be very careful when selecting the codes provided by probing as much as you can to ensure you get the precise answer.

For Example: Assume that somebody is moving to WOODLEY (in KIBERA). In 3.1, you will write “NAIROBI/NAIROBI/KIBERA/WOODLEY and then you will code “4” for “Nairobi non-slum”. You will note here that, although this migrant moved to KIBERA, the area of destination is not necessarily a slum. This is valid for all the slums. It is important, therefore, to assess whether the village or estate the migrant is moving to is a slum area. There are several ways of probing to ascertain whether the village of destination is a slum or not. One way is to ask about the materials of the walls of houses in the neighbourhood, or ask whether the environment resembles the slum where the interview is taking place.

[Note: code 8 should be used only in extreme cases, and only when all the probing has failed, this option is not acceptable if the respondent is the migrant him\herself]
