Summary 

The Lot Quality Assurance Sampling Survey conducted in 2004 assessed the progress of the UPHOLD program in Uganda. UPHOLD, the Uganda Program for Human and Holistic Development, was a 5-year program focused on improving social services in education, health, and HIV/AIDS. The 2004 LQAS canvassed 20 districts and surveyed health facilities, primary schools, and households.

The household survey canvassed five classes of participants in particular: women ages 15-49 years with a child under 2, women ages 15-49 years with a child under 5, women ages 15-49 years with school-aged children, and women of childbearing age.
