Guyana - Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2000

The 2000 Guyana Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) is a nationally representative survey of households. Although the household was the basic unit of enumeration, information was collected on the welfare of women and children resident in households. The main objectives of the survey were to provide up-to-date information for assessing the situation of children and omen in Guyana at the end of the decade and to furnish data needed for monitoring progress toward goals established at the World Summit for Children and as a basis for future action.
