In countries as diverse as Bangladesh, Thailand, Fiji, Qatar, Cote d\u2019Ivoire, Turkmenistan and Argentina, trained fieldwork teams conduct face-to-face interviews with household members on a variety of topics \u2013 focusing mainly on those issues that directly affect the lives of children and women. MICS is an integral part of plans and policies of many governments around the world, and a major data source for more than 30 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) indicators. The MICS programme continues to evolve with new methodologies and initiatives, including MICS Plus, MICS Link, MICS GIS and the MICS Tabulator.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2000","end":"2000","cycle":"Round 2"}],"nation":[{"name":"Botswana","abbreviation":"BWA"}],"geog_coverage":"Botswana\nThe majority of MICS surveys are designed to be representative at the national level. Sample sizes are sufficient to generate robust data at the regional or provincial levels, and for urban and rural areas. In MICS2, subnational surveys, covering specific population groups (such as the Palestinians in Lebanon) or specific geographical areas (such as the Selected Regions of East in Afghanistan) within countries were also conducted.","analysis_unit":"Household, Individual","notes":"A practical tool for collecting data, the MICS survey was developed in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations Statistics Division, the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). By 1996, 60 developing countries had carried out a stand-alone MICS, and another 40 had incorporated some of the MICS modules into other surveys.\n\nThe experience gained since 1993, particularly with the mid-decade MICS, has been used to modify the indicators in the initial set. Second, a small set of additional indicators has been added to provide a broader base from which to measure progress during the next decade. They include some additional indicators to monitor child rights as well as some of the newly emerging programme concerns such as the Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) initiative, malaria, and knowledge of HIV\/AIDS."},"method":{"data_collection":{"sampling_procedure":"The Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) is a nationally representative survey of households, women, and children.  The main objectives of the survey were to provide up-to-date information for assessing the situation of children and women at the end of the decade and to furnish data needed for monitoring progress toward goals established at the World Summit for Children and as a basis for future action.\n\nThe sample for the Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) was typically designed to provide estimates of health indicators at the national level, for areas of residence, and for geo levels such as regions, or districts. The sample was usually selected in two stages.  Habitually, MICS samples are not self-weighting.  For reporting national level results, sample weights were used.  Full technical details of the sample are included in Appendix A of the Final Report.","coll_mode":"Face-to-face [f2f]","research_instrument":"MICS questionnaires were designed by implementing agencies, typically the National Statistical Offices. In each country, MICS questionnaires are based on an assessment of the country\u2019s data needs. The starting point were the standard MICS questionnaires designed by UNICEF, in close coordination with expert and development partners. Countries chose from the MICS modules in the model MICS questionnaires. Like the mid-decade MICS questionnaire, this questionnaire is modular, so that countries may choose among indicators.\n\nIndicators for 19 of the 27 World Summit for Children (WSC) goals could be monitored with a multiple indicator survey. Each goal had a quantified target to be reached by the year 2000.The end-decade standard MICS questionnaire and accompanied manual have been developed specifically to obtain the data for 63 of the 75 end-decade indicators. They also supported survey coordinators and technical resource persons to decide which indicators will be measured with the survey, what information to collect, design a good questionnaire, make logistic arrangements and carry out fieldwork. \n\nFlow of standard questionnaire modules:\n\nPart I.  Household questionnaire\nHousehold information panel\nHousehold listing (all residents) and orphanhood questions (birth to 14)\nEducation module: educational attainment (age 5 and over), school attendance (age 5-17)\nChild labour module (age 5-14)\nOptional maternal mortality module (all adults 15 years and over)\nWater and sanitation module (all households)\nSalt iodization module (all households)\nOptional child disability module (2-9-year-olds)\n \nPart II.  Questionnaire for individual women (women of reproductive age, 15-49)\nWomen\u2019s information panel (all eligible women)\nChild mortality (all eligible women)\nTetanus toxoid (all mothers with last birth within last year)\nMaternal and newborn health (all mothers with last birth within last year)\nContraceptive use module (currently married women, 15-49)\nHIV\/AIDS (all women, 15-49)\n\nPart III.  Questionnaire for children under five\nBirth registration and early learning module\nVitamin A module\nBreastfeeding module\nCare of illness module\nMalaria module (for high-risk areas)\nImmunization module\nAnthropometry module","coll_situation":"UNICEF provided technical support to the MICS surveys with the aim to contribute to the improvement of country\u2019s data and monitoring systems and to strengthen technical expertise in the design, implementation, and analysis of such systems. UNICEF prepared guidelines and templates to facilitate planning and design of the surveys and support data collection, data processing and report writing.  The software packages that have been used to produce standard programs for processing MICS surveys are: Epi Info, SPSS, IMPS, and ISSA. The procedures and standard programmes developed by UNICEF and adapted to the country specific questionnaires were used throughout the survey process. \n\nFieldwork was conducted by teams of interviewers, editors, measurers and supervisors. A detailed description of team composition and specific tasks is provided in the final report. Data entry and validation were carried out simultaneously with data collection. As per the MICS survey manual recommendation typically two country reports be produced, an early preliminary report, and a more comprehensive final report.
