About
MICS (Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys) is a standardized household survey tool, and it has become one of the world’s largest sources of statistical information on children and women. As an important tool for monitoring national development goals and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), MICS provides nationally representative and internationally comparable data on children, adolescents, women, men, and their living environment. Since the first round of MICS launched globally in the mid-1990s, UNICEF has been supporting seven rounds of MICS. As of February 2024, 363 surveys have been carried out in 120 countries over the past 29 years (https://mics.unicef.org).
