Study notes
The UNPS aims at producing annual estimates in key policy areas and at providing a platform for experimenting with and assessing of national policies and programs. Explicitly, the objectives of the UNPS include:
1. To provide information required for monitoring the National Development Strategy, of major programs such as National Agricultural Advisory Services (NAADS) and General Budget Support, and also to provide information to the compilation of the National Accounts (e.g. agricultural production);
2. To provide high quality nationally representative information on income dynamics at the household level and provide annual information on service delivery and consumption expenditure estimates to monitor poverty and service outcomes in interim years of other national survey efforts, such as the Uganda National Household Survey (UNHS), Uganda Demographic and Health Survey (UDHS) and National Service Delivery Surveys (NSDS);
3. To provide a framework for low-cost experimentation with different policy interventions to e.g. reduce teacher absenteeism, improve ante- and post-natal care, or assessing the effect of agricultural input subsidies;
4. To provide a framework for policy oriented analysis and capacity building substantiated with the UGDR and support to other research which will feed into the Annual Policy Implementation Review; and
5. To facilitate randomized impact evaluations of interventions whose effects cannot currently be readily assessed through the existing system of national household surveys.

Sampling
Sampling procedure
Starting in 2009/10, the UNPS has been set out to track and re interview 3,123 households that were distributed over 322 enumeration areas (EAs), selected out of the 783 EAs that had been visited by the Uganda National Household Survey (UNHS) in 2005/06. The UNPS EAs covered all 34 EAs visited by the UNHS 2005/06 in Kampala District, and 72 EAs (58 rural and 14 urban) in each of the (i) Central Region with the exception of Kampala District, (ii) Eastern Region, (iii) Western Region, and (iv) Northern Region.
Within each stratum, the UNPS EAs were selected from the UNHS 2005/06 EAs with equal probability, and with implicit stratification by urban/rural and district (in this order), except for the rural portions of the ten districts that were oversampled by the UNHS 2005/06. In these districts, the probabilities were deflated, to bring them back to the levels originally intended. Since IDP camps were mostly unoccupied, the extra EAs in IDP camps were not a part of the UNPS subsample. This allocation strives for reasonably reliable estimates for the rural portion of each region, and for the set of urban areas out of Kampala as a whole, as well as the best possible estimates for Kampala that can be expected from a subsample of the UNHS 2005/06. Therefore, the UNPS strata of representativeness included (i) Kampala City, (ii) Other Urban Areas, (iii) Central Rural, (iv) Eastern Rural, (v) Western Rural, and (vi) Northern Rural.

Weighting
The sampling weights were developed in eight steps:
1) Incorporate the probability of selection into the UNPS;
2) Derive fair-share weights for composition changes;
3) Pool the weights in (1) and (2) together;
4) Derive attrition adjusted weights for all individuals, including split-off households, then aggregate these weights to the household level;
5) Post-stratify the pooled weights to known population totals
For further details on sampling weight construction, see Basic Information Document - section 4 (UNPS 2013/14 Panel Weights).
