<P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P><div><span style="font-style: italic;">Gender and Adolescence: Global Evidence</span> (GAGE) is a ten-year (2015-2025) research programme, funded by UK Aid from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), that seeks to combine longitudinal data collection and a mixed-methods approach to understand the lives of adolescents in particularly marginalized regions of the Global South, and to uncover 'what works' to support the development of their capabilities over the course of the second decade of life, when many of these individuals will go through key transitions such as finishing their education, starting to work, getting married and starting to have children.</div><div><br></div><div>GAGE undertakes longitudinal research in seven countries in Africa (Ethiopia, Rwanda), Asia (Bangladesh, Nepal) and the Middle East (Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine). Sampling adolescent girls and boys aged between 10‐19‐year olds, the quantitative survey follows a global total of 18,000 adolescent girls and boys, and their caregivers and explores the effects that programme have on their lives. This is substantiated by in‐depth qualitative and participatory research with adolescents and their peers. Its policy and legal analysis work stream studies the processes of policy change that influence the investment in and effectiveness of adolescent programming.</div><br>Further information, including publications, can be found on the Overseas Development Institute <a href="https://www.gage.odi.org/" target="_blank">GAGE</a> website. <br><br>The main purpose of <span style="font-style: italic;">Gender and Adolescence: Global Evidence: Bangladesh Chittagong-Sylhet Cross Section, 2018</span> was to gather information on the lives of school-going adolescents living in nine districts across the Chittagong (Brahmnbaria, Chandpur, Chittagong, Cox's Bazar, and Rangamati districts) and Sylhet (Habiganj, Maulvibazaar, Sunamgani, and Sylhet districts) divisions of Bangladesh. The sample primarily comprised of school-going adolescents attending grade 6 in 2018, across 132 schools. This included a purposeful sample of adolescents who had dropped out of school and of adolescents with disabilities. In addition to adolescents, interviews were conducted with the adult female caregiver (1,747 surveys) and, for about a third of the adolescents, an adult male caregiver (449 surveys). Further information about the research site, sample selection, and data collection process is available in the documentation.<B>Main Topics</B>:<BR><p class="x_MsoNormal">The Adult Female (AF) dataset contains information about the adult female and the household, including the household roster; family background; durable goods; dwelling characteristics; household activities; investments in children and parenting; disability and functioning; time allocation; role in household decision making; access to productive capital; access to credit; financial inclusion and economic empowerment; information and communication technologies; health and nutrition; attitudes to equality; mobility; voice and agency; social inclusion; marriage and relationships; fertility; and social norms.<br><br>The Core Respondent (CR) dataset contains data from the survey administered to the core respondent (school-going adolescent attending grade 6) and covers education; time allocation; paid work; health and nutrition; physical functioning; physical health; communication and comprehension; emotions, behaviour and relationships; illness and injuries; nutritional knowledge; psychosocial and mental health; mobility, voice and agency; social inclusion and economic empowerment; information and communication technologies; marriage and relationships; and fertility.<br><br>The Adult Male (AM) dataset contains information on the adult male in the subset of households where surveys were conducted with adult males, covering investments in children and parenting; time allocation; information and communication technologies; health and nutrition; attitudes; social norms; and social inclusion.</p>
