The current project I am working on hopes to evaluate the impact of a conditional cash transfer program on the marriage market (degree of assortative mating, perceptions, etc) in Bangladesh. To isolate any causal impact on the marriage market, we exploit the timing of the program implementation across regions. Because different clusters/subdistricts/thanas were exposed to the program at different times, we can compare individuals in clusters with the program to those that had not yet received it. However, we are unable to do so because there is no way for me to tell which cluster number corresponds to which subdistrict. Is there any way I could obtain this information for all Standard DHS rounds?

Much thanks!

Best,
