The analysis presented here comes from Adolescents and Youth in Pakistan 2001-02 A Nationally Representative Survey - the largest such survey focusing on young people. The survey sought information from youth aged 15-24 responsible adults parents where possible in the household where young interviewees lived and other community members in each of the 254 communities where the survey took place.
