This dataset provides estimates from 118 experts who are knowledgeable about induced abortion provision in Zimbabwe. For each residential (urban and rural) and poverty (poor and nonpoor) group, respondents gave estimates about the share of different types of abortions (surgical, misoprostol and other) performed by various types of providers (doctors, nurses, pharmacists, traditional providers, women themselves); the proportion from each provider and method that will result in complications; and the proportion of women who will seek treatment for her complications.
