Note: The format for this Country Profile has beenadapted fromthe Countdownto 2015 report. Coverage data have beenlargely derived fromnational household surveys suchas the Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS) and
Demographic and HealthSurveys (DHS). For the majority of coverage indicators, UNICEF global databases were used. Other organizations suchas the World HealthOrganization, UNAIDS, United Nations PopulationFund,
LondonSchool of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and Saving NewbornLives also provided data. Details onindicators, data sources, and definitions of indicators, canbe found at www.childinfo.org.
6. Water and sanitation- Wealthquintile data are derived fromMICS or DHS surveys. Urban, rural and total coverage estimates provided are for 2010 and are those published by the WHO/UNICEF J oint Monitoring Programme for
Water Supply and Sanitation.
1. Disparities - Disparity informationis only available for data directly derived fromhousehold surveys suchas MICS and DHS. Therefore, disparity data are not available for the following indicators: vitaminA supplementation,
immunization, and for HIV/AIDS. Inaddition, neither UNICEF Global Databases nor databases frompartner organizations maintaindisparity data for the following indicators: total fertility rate, unmet need, institutional deliveries,
contraceptive prevalence, adolescent birthrate.
4. Anthropometric indicators - Reference Standards for Underweight, Stunting and Wasting. Newinternational Child GrowthStandards for infants and young childrenwere released by WHO in2006, replacing the older NCHS/WHO
reference population. Inusing the 2006 WHO reference population, estimates generally change inthe following manner: stunting is greater throughout childhood; underweight rates are higher during the first half of infancy and lower
thereafter; and, wasting rates are higher during infancy. Please note that there may be small discrepancies betweenthe totals and the disparity data, as the totals have undergone additional analysis.
5. Child Health- All indicators inthis sectionrefer to childrenunder 5 years of age.
2. Equity chart - Displays values for the five wealthquintiles to the left. The scale is 0 to 100% for all charts except U5MR, whichshows a range of 0 to 300 deaths per 1,000 live births.
3. U5MR - Wealthquintile data are derived directly fromMICS, DHS or other surveys. The total is the inter-agency estimate published by the UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation(IGME).
