Prep for the DHS eForum

The DHS eforum will launch any day now! If you haven’t already done so, register here so that you will be able to participate in this important online discussion that will provide input to the DHS program on the maternal health content of the revised DHS questionnaire.


Meanwhile, check out these excellent background documents that our colleagues from The Futures Institute (who will be moderating the eforum) have put together.


Note that these documents are from the last round of the DHS and are provided for background purposes. The newly revised questionnaires were posted on 6/2/2009.
