• The Baseline Survey included both household interviews and health facility assessments. The survey was conducted in 2010/2011 in the six project cities.
  • Summary fact sheets were prepared for Abuja, Benin City, Ibadan, Ilorin, Kaduna and Zaria based on the baseline findings.
• The Midterm Evaluation Survey was conducted in 2012, in four intervention cities (Abuja, Kaduna, Ibadan, and Ilorin), providing comparisons on vital health indicators in the time since the Baseline Survey. The midterm design was similar to the baseline survey.
  • In addition to the Midterm Executive Summary, summary fact sheets were prepared for Abuja, Ibadan, Ilorin and Kaduna based on the midterm findings.
• MLE conducted an  Endline Evaluation Survey in 2014 in the six project citiies. This survey also includes both a household survey and health facility assessments.
