Social indicator sample survey 2018: survey findings report

ABSTRACT

The Social Indicator Sample Survey was carried out in 2018 by National Statistical Office, as part of the Global MICS Programme. Technical support was provided by the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), with government funding and financial support of UNICEF and United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). The Global MICS Programme was developed by UNICEF in the 1990s as an international multi-purpose household survey programme to support countries in collecting internationally comparable data on a wide range of indicators on the situation of children and women. MICS surveys measure key indicators that allow countries to generate data for use in policies, programmes, and national development plans, and to monitor progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and other internationally agreed upon commitments. The objective of this report is to facilitate the timely dissemination and use of results from the SISS. The report contains detailed information on the survey methodology, and all standard MICS tables. The report is accompanied by Infographics of the main findings of the survey.
