Coverage
Geographic Coverage
The study's statistical population was defined as all households in areas of southern Sudan deemed to be accessible in terms of internal security. Government garrison towns and their environs were recognised as 'out of scope' for the survey. It is thought that between 70 and 80 percent of the population residing in southern Sudan is thus covered by the survey. The sample that was designed and executed was done so in accordance with statistical probability selection methods so that the results are a valid representation of the population covered by the survey. Insecurity and access denials made it impossible to visit certain locations in southern Sudan. This report reflects data from only those locations that were accessible and only in rebel-held areas.Producers and Sponsors
