This comment is made on behalf of the Gender Group at The World Bank.

In addition to the suggested district of residence 5 years ago, consider questioning HHM's birth district to infer migration and potential risk-sharing mechanism of extended families including marriages arranged out of the home location.

In areas with Fragility, Conflict, and Violence (FCV)/ other contexts of forced displacement, consider asking why HHM/family moved from the last place of residence (displaced or voluntary). If displaced, was it due to: climate, natural disaster, security/forced displacement. And how many times they have moved in the last X years, and why?

We would love to continue the discussion and work alongside DHS to develop a more refined instrument in measuring the indicated indicators. Please do not hesitate to email Kathleen Beegle (kbeegle@worldbank.org) and Daniel Halim (dhalim@worldbank.org).
