This survey was a probability sample of all women aged 15-44. A multistage cluster sample was drawn whereby enumeration districts were selected with probability of selection proportionate to their size. Only one eligible woman was interviewed per household, and a total of 1000 women were interviewed. The survey covered contraceptive awareness, contraceptive use and family-planning programs.
