Guyana Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2006 (MICS)
The Guyana Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) was carried out by the Bureau of
Statistics in collaboration with the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF).
The survey has been conducted as part of the third round of MICS surveys (MICS3), carried
out around the world in more than 50 countries, in 2005–2006, following the first two rounds
of MICS surveys that were conducted in 1995 and 2000. Survey tools are based on the models
and standards developed by the global MICS project, designed to collect information on the
situation of children and women in countries around the world. Additional information on the
global MICS project may be obtained from http://www.childinfo.org

Marginality (Poverty status) indices have been computed for each
of the 10 Administrative Regions of Guyana and also at NDC Level using
selected variables from the 2002 Population and Housing Census.
