SAVVY data collection is grouped into three categories: census enumeration, birth and death notifications, and VA interviews. During initial setup of the SAVVY arm, baseline censuses were conducted in all districts enumerating all households within the selected enumeration areas and captured a snapshot of the population. Each household was visited and family structure data were collected including details of the head of household, each member's name, gender, occupation, and education. Follow up questions were asked for female household members on number of children. During baseline census, retrospective death events of the past 12 months were also collected. A notification system of vital events was set up following the baseline censuses. Each birth or death event occurring in SAVVY enumeration areas triggered a notification message sent by a community key informant using a mobile phone. In addition to reporting of vital events, SAVVY also promotes vital registration through use of government registers provided by the Registration Insolvency and Trusteeship Agency (RITA).
