| Description |
The first Southern Sudan Household Health Survey (SHHS) was a joint effort of the
Ministry of Health, Government of Southern Sudan (MOH-GOSS) and the Southern
Sudan Commission for Census, Statistics and Evaluation (SSCCSE). The survey was
part of a wider activity that covered the 25 states of Sudan. Whereas this report
focuses on the 10 states of Southern Sudan, it includes findings from the 15
remaining States of Sudan. This was considered necessary by the stakeholders for
ease of comparison and reference.
The findings from this survey provide the information needed for evidence based
policy formulation and planning geared to rapid improvement of the health
situation of the people of Southern Sudan, especially, children and women. |
