More on LAMP-ECU4 Databases

For the surveys in Ecuador, the LAMP established an association with the Universidad de Cuenca - Programa de Población y Desarrollo Local Sustentable (PYDLOS).

In addition to acknowledging the LAMP, we request that users who work with the LAMP-ECU4 database give credit to theUniversidad de Cuenca - Programa de Población y Desarrollo Local Sustentable (PYDLOS) and mention the support of the MacArthur Foundation.

The following is an example of proper acknowledgement involving only the Ecuatorian datasets:

"The LAMP-ECU4 database compiles data gathered by the Universidad de Cuenca - Programa de Población y Desarrollo Local Sustentable (PYDLOS) in association with the Latin American Migration Project (LAMP: lamp.opr.princeton.edu). The MacArthur Foundation provided financial support."
