Harmonized Household Health Surveys, HHHS 2010, Sudan

The Sudan Household Health Survey 2nd round (SHHS2) 2010 provides up-to-date information on the situation of children and women and measures of key indicators that allow countries to monitor progress towards the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and other internationally agreed upon commitments. The raw survey data provided by the Statistical Office were then harmonized by the Economic Research Forum, to create a comparable version with the 2006 Household Health Survey in Sudan. Harmonization at this stage only included unifying variables' names, labels and some definitions. See: Sudan 2006 & 2010- Variables Mapping & Availability Matrix.pdf provided in the external resources for further information on the mapping of the original variables on the harmonized ones, in addition to more indications on the variables' availability in both survey years and relevant comments. The sample harmonized and disseminated by the Economic research represents Northern Sudan only. The data may be accessed through the ERF Data Portal: http://www.erfdataportal.com/index.php/catalog/104
