Description

Definition
For children with diarrhea in the past 2 weeks, DIATRJO9 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from a UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East) facility. This response category is country-specific to Jordan.

Some samples in the "DIATR" 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.

DIATRJO9 is combined with DIATRJO10 (UNHCR/other NGO) in DIATRNGO (all NGOs) for the 2017 Jordan sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using DIATRJO9 are encouraged to review DIATRNGO for a more comprehensive response category.
