The data was collected by the Project “Co-producing urban knowledge in Angola and Mozambique through community-led data collection: towards meeting SDG 11” based in the African Centre for Cities, at the University of Cape Town. The Project aimed to collect data on cities in the two Lusophone African countries to inform their national governments' attempts to achieve Sustainable Development Goals related to cities. The Project collected data from 1282 households in six neighbourhoods in the cities of Maputo and Luanda. Interviews and focus groups were also held in each of the neighbourhoods before (in the case of Maputo) and after (in the case of Luanda) the completion of the survey to collect qualitative data about the settlements. The survey findings were presented and discussed with local administrations and survey participants to triangulate and validate the results. The findings were then made available to national governments and other relevant stakeholders. The Project was funded by the International Science Council research funding programme, Leading Integrated Research for Agenda 2030 in Africa (LIRA 2030 AFRICA).

Scope
The survey collected data on households' knowledge of the SDGs, and demographic data (age, gender, marital status, disability status, education, employment, income, home language) as well as data on place of birth, number of children and internal migration. Data was also collected on housing and tenancy, energy sources, water sources, waste disposal, asset ownership, media use, transport, leisure, hygiene and the environment, as well as community and political participation
Coverage
The data was collected from settlements within each city. In Luanda these settlements were: Km 12A in the district of Viana (n=310), Nova Urbaniza 2 in Panguila (n=148), and Cariango in Cazenga (n=224). In Maputo these were Luis Cabral (n=200), Hulene B (n=200) and Chamanculo C (n=200). These together represent a total of 1282 households.
The data is made available at the level of settlements within each city.

Sampling
In both cities, three self-built settlements were selected for the surveys. These settlement types are home to the majority of, mostly low income, urban dwellers in both cities, as opposed to wealthier households who live in planned and formally laid-out houses and apartment buildings
Self-built settlements vary by location. built environment, and levels of access to basic services. The research sample was stratified to reflect this variation through the selection of three settlements with similar typologies in each city: an old settlement from colonial times, a more recently built or expanded settlement, and a settlement that had undergone urban upgrading.
Few participants declined to be interviewed. The enumerators would record the number of households they attempted to interview before completing a questionnaire (on average one house in Luanda and less than one In Maputo), but the data does not distinguish between refusal to participate or no one being at home.
