NTA Time Use and Gender Workshop Hanoi

Institute for Labor, Science and Social Affairs (ILSSA), Hanoi, Vietnam, May 21-25, 2012

With financial support from IDRC through the Asian NTA study project "Intergenerational Transfers, Population Aging and Social Protection in Asia," implemented by NUPRI in collaboration with TDRI.

Facilitator: Gretchen Donehower

Note to participants - materials to bring and pre-workshop questionnaire

Objectives

By the end of the week, we hope that teams will produce a first draft of production and consumption age and gender profiles for both market-based NTA and time-based household production accounts. We will discuss how to compute the other profiles (transfers and asset-based), but we will most likely not have time to begin those calculations. We will begin with the time-based accounts, so that in the case that time falls short, we have had a chance to introduce the newer material on time use.
