Project Description

The Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey - Higher School of Economics (RLMS-HSE) is a series of nationally representative surveys designed to monitor the effects of Russian reforms on the health and economic welfare of households and individuals in the Russian Federation. These effects are measured by a variety of means: detailed monitoring of individuals' health status and dietary intake, precise measurement of household-level expenditures and service utilization, and collection of relevant community-level data, including region-specific prices and community infrastructure data. Data have been collected 21 times since 1992 till now. Of these, 17 represent the RLMS Phase II. 
The RLMS-HSE is conducted by the National Research University Higher School of Economics and ZAO “Demoscope”, headed by Polina Kozyreva and Mikhail Kosolapov together with Carolina Population Center, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, headed by Barry M. Popkin and the Institute of Sociology RAS.
Since 2010 the RLMS-HSE data is available for analysis, but please note that we do require an updated Data-Use Agreement to gain access to this data. 

More information about RLMS-HSE project and databases in english are available on the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Carolina Population Center`s website.
