| Description |
This report serves a number of purposes. First, it provides the background and methodological details of the SACM. Second, the report gives a description of the study area and population in terms of its demography, use of health services, and socioeconomic situation. This aspect of the report is principally intended to serve the evaluation needs of health and social programs in and around the study area. It also provides a demographic and social context within which the primary methodological findings of the study may be usefully interpreted. Lastly, this publication presents and discusses some of the methodological findings of the SACM pertinent to the feasibility of proxy interviewing in the rural African context. More detailed analyses of the data with regard to estimation methodology and adjustment procedures are planned for later publication. |
