Socio-Demographic and Economic Survey To address the vacuum of vital data, CSO started the Socio-Demographic and Economic Survey (SDES) in 2011, with the intent of conducting it province by province, as the Expert Group had recommended, with an emphasis on collecting the socio-demographic and economic data at the district level. SDES provides data on the population characteristics, literacy, educational attainment, migration, employment, functional difficulty, fertility, mortality, birth registration and living status of parents, disaggregated by sex and district. Information on the household and housing characteristics is also included
