  1. Multiple Indicator Cluster SurveysSurvey Design Workshop MICS: Past, Present and Future MICS Survey Design Workshop

  2. Past: Some History

  3. Global household survey programmes • Since 1970s • Multi-topic, multiple indicator surveys • World Fertility Surveys (1970s, early 1980s) • Contraceptive Prevalence Surveys (1980s) • Demographic and Health Surveys (since 1980s, USAID) • MICS (since 1995, UNICEF) • Reproductive Health Surveys (since 1990s, CDC – now discontinued)

  4. Global household survey programmes • Thematic surveys • Living Standards Measurement Surveys - LSMS (World Bank) • Malaria Indicator Surveys – MIS (RBM Malaria) • AIDS Indicator Surveys - AIS (USAID) • SMART surveys (Nutrition) • others

  5. Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys • Developed by UNICEF in the early 1990s to respond to data needs for the World Summit for Children Goals • Since 1995, evolved into an ongoing global survey programme with • collection of data on multiple globally agreed-upon indicator sets; MDGs, WSC, WFFC indicators… • an institutionalized technical coordination and support system, including • a Global MICS team with coordinators and survey experts in New York and all regions • full package of MICS-specific survey instruments

  6. Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys • Face to face interviews, observations, measurements • Representative data based on probabilistic samples • Modular structure of questionnaires, easily customized to country needs • Low, middle and high income countries

  7. Technical Support and Quality Assurance • Global MICS Team • UNICEF New York MICS Team • Survey Coordinators in 7 UNICEF Regional Offices • Global and Regional Experts (20+) • UNICEF Country Offices + UNICEF MICS Consultant (Resident) • Implementing agencies (NSOs)

  8. Technical Support and Quality Assurance • Regional Workshops, on: • Survey Design • Data Processing • Data Dissemination and Further Analysis • On-site and off-site support by UNICEF MICS staff members and consultants • Standard survey tools – from documents on governance to dissemination of results • Quality control mechanisms at every step in the survey process

  9. MICS: 1995-2009 • MICS1: 1995 • 60 countries • Emphasis on World Summit for Children Goals • Minimum technical support • Global evaluation

  10. MICS: 1995-2009 • MICS2: 2000 • 59 countries • Emphasis on World Summit for Children goal • Increased technical support, better standardization of survey tools

  11. MICS: 1995-2009 • MICS3: 2005-2009 • 54 surveys • Emphasis on World Fit for Children Goals, MDGs, and plus • A “system” for quality assurance and technical support

  12. 2010-2012

  13. MICS 2010-2012 • Emphasis on MDGs, other globally recommended indicators, and • Emerging issues: adolescents, early childhood development, life satisfaction…. • 59 surveys conducted

  14. MICS Surveys by Region: 2010-2012

  15. MICS 2010-2012

  16. Low and middle/high income countries Chad, Mali, Costa Rica, Serbia, Qatar, Argentina Emergency or post-emergency settings Somalia, Iraq, Sudan New to MICS (Bhutan, Mali), all MICS rounds (Serbia, Gambia), “returning” countries (Moldova, Afghanistan) MICS Countries – Overview (2010-2012)

  17. Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys Since 1995, more than 100 countries and around 240 surveys* *As of February 2013 – includes surveys in progress with fieldwork completion in 2013 Countries with at least one MICS survey, including sub-national surveys As of February 2013

  18. MICS in Global DatabasesMost recent data points on selected indicators Source: UNICEF Global Databases

  19. MICS List of Indicators

  20. Disaggregation • MICS provides data for more than 100 indicators which can be disaggregated by: • geozones • residence (urban, urban-poor, rural) • gender • education • age • wealth • ethnicity/religion/language • other stratifiers • combinations of the above Data collection through MICS is a primary source of disaggregated data

  21. MICS Questionnaires HOUSEHOLD QUESTIONNAIRE QUESTIONNAIRE FOR INDIVIDUAL MEN (AGE 15-49) QUESTIONNAIRE FOR INDIVIDUAL WOMEN (AGE 15-49) QUESTIONNAIRE FOR CHILDREN UNDER-5 (AGE 0-4)

  22. 21 MDG indicators

  23. Major methodological work in the last 3-4 years to develop validated survey tools

  24. Ongoing methodological work • Development of modules/protocols for • Rapid water testing • External economic support • Child disability • Survey tools • Tablet assisted interviewing • Improved protocols for anthropometric training • Oversampling of households with under-5s, special population groups

  25. MICS and DHS • Close collaboration between survey programs for harmonization of survey tools • Up to 75 percent of indicators in the MICS list can be generated in DHS surveys • Differences mainly in the areas of child protection, reproductive health, biomarkers, education, data on orphans & foster children, mode of technical assistance • Technically easy to add modules from one onto the other • Several countries alternating: Ghana, DRC, Cameroon, and others

  26. MICS and DHS • Hancioglu A, Arnold F (2013) Measuring Coverage in MNCH: Tracking Progress in Health for Women and Children Using DHS and MICS Household Surveys. PLoSMed 10(5): e1001391. doi:10.1371/journal.pmed.1001391

  27. MICS and Other Survey Programmes • Limited harmonization with LSMS • Major methodological differences, eligible respondents, nature of data collected makes it difficult to add from one to the other • Thematic surveys (MIS, AIS, SMART surveys) collect more detailed information on themes of interest, MICS and DHS collect the minimum needed on a comparable basis

  28. Future: Final MDG Reporting and MICS Surveys 2013-2014

  29. Timeline for global reporting on MDGs 2012 2013 2014 2015 Data compilation and analysis June-August 2014 Submission of data for SG’s report March 2015 Deadline for Conducting Fieldwork for Household Surveys End of First Quarter 2014 SG’s MDG Report launch September 2015

  30. Typical MICS Survey timeline

  31. Global Pilot Survey (Bangladesh, May-June 2012) Finalize survey instruments …and supporting documents (by March 2013) Assessment of data gaps, dialogue with governments Regional Workshops Survey Implementation 2013 - First quarter 2014 at the latest for surveys servicing MDG reporting 2013 and 2014 for all other surveys 2013-2014: Timelines

  32. 2013-2014: Regional Workshops

  33. Survey Design and Data Processing Workshops at end of 2013, early 2014 for countries conducting surveys in mid to late 2014 Data Dissemination and Further Analysis Workshops from early 2014 to early 2015 40 surveys confirmed, more to join 2013-2014: Regional Workshops

  34. 2015 and beyond • Complete reports of surveys conducted in 2014 • Post-2015 agenda • New survey tools • Current UNICEF strategic plan including MICS: 2014-2017
