PMA2016/Ethiopia Round 4 Indicators

SNAPSHOT OF INDICATORS

Summary of the sample design for PMA2016/Ethiopia-R4:

PMA2020 is designed to create sentinel sites for data collection both at the population level and among service delivery points (SDPs). Enumeration areas (EAs) selected in Round 1 are generally used for data collection in Rounds 2-4. Households within the EA are randomly sampled during each round; however the EA is consistent across rounds. The original Round 1 sample design summary is provided below.

PMA2020 Ethiopia uses a two-stage cluster design with residential area (urban and rural) and sub-regions as strata, sampling across all 11 geographic regions in Ethiopia. 95% of the target population, women of reproductive age 15-49 years, reside in five regions (Addis Ababa, Amhara, Oromiya, SNNP and Tigray). Other regions with a total of less than 5% of the target population are allocated to a sixth synthetic region (referred to as “other”). Given the uneven population distribution and resource limitation, regional representative samples are only taken in the five regions (Addis Ababa, Amhara, Oromiya, SNNP and Tigray). The fourth round sample of 221 EAs and 7,651 households is designed to estimate modern contraceptive prevalence among all women at less than 2% margin of error at the national level, less than 3% for urban and rural estimates, and less than 5% at each of the five regional levels.

The table below provides a summary of key family planning indicators and their breakdown by background characteristics. Estimates for all indicators were collapsed by administrative region (Central, Western, Eastern, Northern) due to small sample sizes when disaggregated by background characteristics.
