Since the mid-1990s, more than 120 countries have carried out one or more Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey, generating data on key indicators on the well-being of children, and helping shape policies for the improvement of their lives.
Country teams participate in regional or global MICS workshops
Participants improve their understanding of the child-centric household survey indicators, the MICS technical collaboration framework, and the recommended survey methodology along with tools for collecting data on the situation of children.
Implementing partners' data processing teams enrich their understanding of the MICS data processing methodology, protocols, standards, and technical guidelines while enhancing their skills in the utilization of the three software packages used by MICS: CSPro, Power BI and SPSS.
Workshops on data interpretation and report compilation are organized at country level to review initial tabulations, agree on interpretations and produce the full first draft of the Survey Findings Report
Occasionally, the MICS programme will organize global thematic workshops on topics such as education and multidimensional poverty to further mine MICS data to inform policy and programmes.
