Interviewer instructions
P - 8 Where was [the respondent] born? (Birth Place)
20. In this question "Place" refers to district for cases within Zambia, or country for cases outside Zambia whether the person is Zambian or not. This should be the place of usual residence of the mother of the respondent, at the time of birth of the respondent, and not the hospital or place where she just went to give birth. For persons born in Zambia, write the district of birth and then enter the appropriate code which is provided in Appendix 1 on page 77. Some people may not know the name of the district in which they were born, but they will generally know the name of the Chief's area. In such cases you should write out the Chief's area and then later on refer to the list of Chiefs by districts in Appendix 2 on page 79 and find out which district the Chief belongs to. In case the person was born outside Zambia, write the name of the country in which he/she was born. Then enter the apropriate country code in the three boxes provided. The country codes are given in Appendix 4 on page 93. Do not write the name of the district of a foreign country. Note that a zero, '0' has been added to the district codes in order to standardize them with country codes.


Rural/Urban:
21. Find out whether the part of the district in which the person was born was a rural or an urban area at the time of his/her birth. Enter code '1' for Rural and code '2' for Urban. The list of urban areas and townships is given in Appendix 3 on page 89. In case of a foreign country write '8- meaning, not applicable.
