Zimbabwe (2006): MAP Study Evaluating Coverage and Quality of Coverage of Protector Plus Condoms Second Round

Project MAP (Measuring Access and Performance) aims to increase the coverage, quality of coverage, access, and efficiency of social marketing product and service delivery systems. A project MAP study was undertaken to determine the coverage, quality of coverage, and access of PSI/Zimbabwe's Protector Plus condoms in Zimbabwe using districts and specific high risk areas as supervision areas. Lot Quality Assurance Sampling techniques (LQAS) were used to draw a sample of 19 wards within each geographic category. A sample size of 19 provides reasonably accurate estimates with an acceptable error margin for decision making. Geographic categories, also called supervision areas, in which data was collected include: districts (all 61 districts were included) and high risk areas (19 growth points and 5 border towns). In cases where districts had fewer that 19 wards, a census of all the wards was conducted. Wards where no outlets could be found were considered to have no coverage and therefore no replacement was done. Data were processed with Health Mapper and SPSS Version 13.0.
