Description

Definition

GEO_ZW2015 (V101_ZW2015) reports the region of Zimbabwe where the respondent was interviewed. DHS regions in the 2015 Zimbabwe survey are equivalent to provinces.

Other sample years have their own sample-specific geography variables. The integrated variable GEO_ZW1994_2015 provides spatially consistent units over time for Zimbabwe.

A GIS map for GEO_ZW2015 (in shapefile format) can be downloaded from the DHS Program Spatial Data Repository [URL omitted from DDI.] Boundaries page.
