Abstract

The Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) is a household survey programme developed by UNICEF to assist countries in filling data gaps for monitoring human development in general and the situation of children and women in particular. MICS is capable of producing statistically sound, internationally comparable estimates of social indicators. The current round of MICS is focused on providing a monitoring tool for the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the World Fit for Children (WFFC), as well as for other major international commitments, such as the United Nations General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) on HIV/AIDS and declarations issued by the League of Arab States and related institutions and organizations concerned about child rights in Arab countries, and the Cairo Declaration “Towards an Arab World Fit for Children”, and the Second Arab Work Plan for Children (2004-2015) that was adopted at the Arab Summits.

The 2006 Yemen Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey has as its primary objectives: - To provide up-to-date information for assessing the situation of children and women in Yemen; - To furnish data needed for monitoring progress toward goals established in the Millennium Declaration, the goals of A World Fit For Children (WFFC), and other internationally agreed upon goals, as a basis for future action; - To contribute to the improvement of data and monitoring systems in Yemen and to strengthen technical expertise in the design, implementation, and analysis of such systems.

Survey Content MICS questionnaires are designed in a modular fashion that can be easily customized to the needs of a country. They consist of a household questionnaire, a questionnaire for women aged 15-49 and a questionnaire for children under the age of five (to be administered to the mother or caretaker). Other than a set of core modules, countries can select which modules they want to include in each questionnaire.

Survey Implementation The survey was implemented by the Ministry of Health and Population, with the support and assistance of UNICEF and PAPFAM. Technical assistance and training for the surveys was provided through a series of regional workshops, covering questionnaire content, sampling and survey implementation; data processing; data quality and data analysis; report writing and dissemination.

Geographic coverage

The survey is nationally represe ntative and covers the whole of Yemen, excluding islands and the nomadic population.

Analysis unit

Households (defined as a group of persons who usually live and eat together)

De jure household members (defined as memers of the household who usually live in the household, which may include people who did not sleep in the household the previous night, but does not include visitors who slept in the household the previous night but do not usually live in the household) Ever-married

women aged 15-49

Children aged 0-4

Universe

The survey covered all de jure household members (usual residents), ever-married women aged 15-49 years resident in the household, and all children aged 0-4 years (under age 5) resident in the household.

Kind of data

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

The Yemen MICS sample design was a two-stage stratified cluster sample. The following parameters were accounted for in designing the sample:

1 - The sample is to provide estimates with reasonable precision at national and urban/rural levels. 2 - The residents of the Yemeni islands and the nomadic population are excluded from survey coverage. 3 - The size of ultimate cluster is 20 households 4 - It is approximately self-weighted design.

Sample allocation The sample is allocated proportionally between urban and rural strata; the percentage of households that should be allocated to urban and rural areas was obtained from the 2004 Census. As the ultimate cluster is determined to be 20 households, the number of sample clusters is therefore 200. The proportional allocation of the sample is such that 142 for rural stratum and 58 for urban stratum.

Sample Selection The sample is to be selected in two stages. The Primary Sampling Unit (PSU) is a village (or a group of villages) in rural areas and a lane (hara) in urban. The micro data of the 2004 Census at these administrative levels has been relied upon to create frames for the first stage sample. The following provides a description of the sample selection in both stages:

First Stage Sample The 2004 Census data (numbers of households and population) for all urban and rural agglomerations have been utilized to create appropriate frames for the first stage sample of urban and rural strata. It was taken into account that the PSU size would be in the range 150-300 households approximately. The creation of a rural frame has entailed grouping neighboring small villages so as to create PSUs in the range of 150-300 households each. Hence, a rural PSU is in most cases a group of small villages. The whole village is considered a PSU as long as its size is in the range 150-300 households.

The situation in urban areas is quite different from rural areas since most lanes (Haras) are much larger than the indicated range of the desired PSU size. For this reason, a second (dummy) sampling stage is necessary to reduce the burden of field listing whenever the lane size is above 300 households. The first urban stage sample included 41 PSU's that required division into equally sized parts. Whereas only 4 PSU's in the rural sample needed to be divided into equal parts.

An implicit stratification has been introduced in both rural and urban frames of the PSUs. Governorates were ordered geographically in a serpentine fashion starting from the northwest corner moving to the northeast corner and back to the west, then to the east and so on till the last governorate. Moreover, as governorate are further divided into a number of directorates (modyriate), another process of implicit stratification within each governorate was implemented by geographically ordering directorates following the same way as for governorates. Undoubtedly, implicit stratification will contribute to more precise sample estimates at both national and urban/rural levels.

The selection of rural and urban first stage samples was made following the Probability Proportionate to Size (PPS) selection method. The employed measure of size (MOS) is the number of Households in each PSU as measured in the 2004 Census.

Second stage sample The selected PSU from the first sample stage, whether it was the whole PSU or a part of one, was updated in the field. A field operation was carried out in each PSU (or a part of it), which has been selected in the first stage sample so as to create an updated list of households for each sample PSU. These lists were used as sample frames for selecting the second stage sample.

The proposed selection method was determined in such a way so as to create compact ultimate clusters of 20 households in the rural sample, and non-compact ultimate cluster of the same size in the urban sample. The reason for selecting compact clusters for rural sample is that most of the rural sample PSU's are composed of several small villages which are, in most cases, located at the tops of adjacent mountains. The spread of the household sample over several small villages, within the same PSU, that would result from the systematic selection, would impose much difficulty in the main survey fieldwork. Hence it has been deemed operationally efficient to deal with the household list for each rural sample PSU as forming a circle. The selection of a single random number in the range of 1 - the total number of households in the list, will determine the entire household sample to be selected from the sample PSU. The household indicated by the selected random number and the subsequent 19 households in the list constitute the household sample to be selected from rural sample PSU's (keeping in mind the circular nature of the list).

In the case of the urban sample, however, an ordinary random systematic selection is suggested, so as to produce a non-compact cluster of 20 households. The households forming urban PSU (or a part of it) are not dispersed over a large area; hence the compact cluster is not justifiable.

Sampling deviation

No major deviations from the original sample design were made. All sample enumeration areas were accessed and successfully interviewed with good response rates.

Research instrument

The questionnaires for the Yemen MICS were structured questionnaires based on the MICS3 Model Questionnaire with some modifications and additions. A household questionnaire was administered in each household, which collected various information on household members including sex, age, relationship, and orphanhood status. The household questionnaire includes household listing, education, water and sanitation, housing characteristics, child labor, child discipline and disability.

In addition to a household questionnaire, questionnaires were administered in each household for ever-married women age 15-49 and children under age five. For children, the questionnaire was administered to the mother or caretaker of the child.

The women's questionnaire include women's characteristics, marriage, child mortality, birth history, tetanus toxid, maternal and newborn health, contraception and unmet need, and HIV and AIDS modules.

The children's questionnaire includes children's characteristics, birth registration and early education, child development, care for illness, and immunization.
