Nigeria Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey with National Immunization Coverage Survey Supplement 2016-2017
General Info
The Nigeria Multiple Cluster Indicator Survey (MICS) 2016-2017 is part of MICS5, an international survey initiative to monitor the situation of children and women. MICS provides data for tracking progress toward Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). For the 2016-2017 Nigeria MICS, 34,376 women and 15,183 men ages 15-19 were successfully interviewed from 33,901 households. Additionally, 28,085 questionnaires for children under five were completed. In a subsample of households, water quality testing was conducted for the presence of E. Coli. The Nigeria 2016-2017 MICS sample was not sufficient to estimate vaccination coverage for children ages 12-23 months, so a supplemental data collection, known as the National Immunization Coverage Survey (NICS), was undertaken in twenty states: Abia, Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Bayelsa, Benue, Cross River, Delta, Edo, Ekiti, Enugu, Imo, Kogi, Kwara, Ogun, Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Plateau, Rivers and FCT (Abuja).
