Description

Definition
For women who are not currently using a contraceptive method, FPNONMW5 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a "mission health center" as a source of family planning. This response category is country-specific to Malawi.

Some samples in the "FPNON" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

FPNONMW5 is combined with FPNONMW4 (mission hospital) and FPNONMW6 (mission mobile clinic) in FPNONPRIVMIS for the Malawi samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FPNONMW5 are encouraged to review FPNONPRIVMIS for a more comprehensive response category.
