Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS, 2006)

The main objective of MICS was to obtain nationally representative as well as district-wise data on children and women in terms of sectors related to health and nutrition, water and sanitation, education and protection. The district level data and the divisional data are used for programming purposes and for targeting appropriate interventions, while national level data are used to monitor the situation of children and women in the country. 

The MICS sample was a two-stage sample.  For 2006 MICS, the first stage sample consists of 9-10 rural ‘Mouzas’ or urban ‘Mahallas’ selected with Probability Proportional to Size (PPS) from each of the 108 domains (64 rural, 23 urban and 13 tribal domains).The households for interviewing will be selected in the second stage, selecting the required number of households from a cluster to yield a total sample of over 68,000 households for the survey.
