PH 05: DEMOGRAPHIC AND HEALTH SURVEYS FOR HEALTH

Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) are nationally-representative household surveys that provide data for a wide range of monitoring and impact evaluation indicators in the areas of population, health, and nutrition. Demographic and Health Surveys provide countries with a standardized tool to obtain indicators for the effective monitoring of national programs such as those on HIV/AIDS, health and family planning services available in a country.

However, use of DHS information is limited to the sectors involved in data collection such as Kenya National Bureau of Statistics. The thrust of the course is to put high-quality survey data knowledge and skills into the hands of programme managers, health care providers, policymakers, country leaders, researchers and others who can act to improve public health.

The course aims at equipping the participants with understanding and use of the DHS data for Health and Development programmes. It also aims at enabling developers of health communication campaigns to improve the way they analyze and develop materials and interventions by learning how to interpret and use data from DHS.
