dc.description.abstract | The lack of population-based data in many developing countries hinders the development of effective programs. In two districts of Tanzania, a Demographic Surveillance System is providing vital information enabling health planners to determine the overall effectiveness of the health system and monitor the status of the population. As a result, they can plan and budget health care services more strategically. | en |
