The study explored the utility of DSS as a source of equity monitoring data. More specifically, it examined how proxies for socio-economic status (ownership of assets, housing quality and sanitation) relate to infant, child and under-five mortality, as well as ownership of bed nets. The DSS approach involves continuous monitoring of households and members within households in cycles or intervals, known in the Rufiji DSS as ‘rounds’ of four months each. Rufiji is one of the six districts of Tanzania's Coast region.1 digital file (19 p. : ill.)application/pdfenSOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTHHEALTH EQUITYSOCIO-ECONOMICSDEMOGRAPHICSSURVEYSDATA COLLECTIONDATA ANALYSISCHILD MORTALITYRIVER BASINTANZANIACOASTAL AREASSOUTH OF SAHARAWorking Paper
