1. Forthcoming events in MICS3 MICS3 Data Analysis and Report Writing Workshop

2. Data and report review process To ensure: - Production and finalization of high quality data sets - Technical concurrence on data - Review of findings and provision of feedback The objectives are: -To agree on data and findings before the publication of the preliminary report -To maximize the provision of technical support to countries

3. Data and report review process Two parts: - Clean data and final tabulations (step 1-6) - Substantive review (step 7-9)

4. Clean data and final tabulations Step 1: Once the data sets are cleaned, HQ runs programs to check data sets for consistency of numbers of cases, skip problems, structural problems Step 2: HQ produces and reviews the summary list of errors in the data, obtained from step 1 Step 3: HQ provides list of errors to the country team

5. Clean data and final tabulations Step 4: The country team corrects data errors, if needed in CSPro files, re-runs export procedures, and if necessary, re-calculates sample weights and wealth index, appends these to the data sets, re-calculates data quality tables and tabulations, sends back to HQ

6. Clean data and final tabulations Step 5: HQ re-runs data quality tables, tabulations and frequencies, using syntax developed at HQ Step 6: HQ compares tabulations produced at HQ (step 5) with tabulations produced by country (step 4), and reviews results of comparisons. HQ writes to country to resolve differences

7. Substantive review Step 7: HQ/RO undertakes a substantive review of tables, particularly on the plausibility of the findings from the surveys. HQ/RO communicates with countries to discuss findings Step 8: Countries finalize preliminary reports based on template provided and send to HQ/RO for feedback Step 9 : Country produces/publishes preliminary report

8. Final report and 4 th workshop All final tabulations will have been produced by the end of the review process leading to the preliminary report Countries to come to the 4 th workshop with final reports, if possible, reviewed beforehand

9. 4 th workshop -Final report / pending issues -Archiving / IHSN -MICS3 to DevInfo -Dissemination – communication -Further analysis 6 – 7 days Next year ?
