tailieunhanh - Analyzing Health Equity Using Household Survey Data

This volume has a simple aim: to provide researchers and analysts with a step-bystep practical guide to the measurement of a variety of aspects of health equity. Each chapter includes worked examples and computer code. We hope that these guides, and the easy-to-implement computer routines contained in them, will stimulate yet more analysis in the fi eld of health equity, especially in developing countries. We hope this, in turn, will lead to more comprehensive monitoring of trends in health equity, a better understanding of the causes of these inequities, more extensive evaluation of the impacts of development programs on health equity, and more effective policies and programs to. | WBI Learning Resources Series Analyzing Health Equity Using Household Survey Data A Guide to Techniques and Their Implementation Owen O Donnell Eddy van Doorslaer Adam Wagstaff Magnus Lindelow The World Bank Washington . 2008 The International Bank for Reconstruction and Development The World Bank 1818 H Street NW Washington DC 20433 Telephone 202-473-1000 Internet E-mail feedback@ All rights reserved 12 34 10 09 08 07 This volume is a product of the staff of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development The World Bank.
