The MICS Programme is pleased to announce the release of new GIS datasets for the Nigeria MICS 2016-17 and Nigeria MICS 2021 surveys, in collaboration with NBS. This release is part of a broader effort to enhance the accessibility and usability of survey data for a wider range of stakeholders, aiding in a better understanding of the geographic distribution of survey data. Researchers interested in accessing this data can now do so easily by sending a mics
unicef.org (request via e-mail to the MICS Team), detailing research objectives. Upon receiving the request, the MICS Team will provide a "Conditions of Use" document that must be completed and signed before data access is granted. These conditions outline the terms of data usage, including restrictions on data sharing, requirements for citing results, and sharing publications with UNICEF and NBS.
