Mortality Analysis from Population Censuses and Surveys in Sudan

A number of population censuses and demographic & health surveys has been conducted in Sudan, which provided a bulk of mortality data at different disaggregating levels. Different analytical and evaluation papers on mortality levels, differentials and trends were written by the author from these data. The author believed that it would be more beneficial if these papers were put together in this book to help the reader to study the mortality conditions in this country from a unified reference. The book consists of 10 papers on the evaluation and analysis of mortality data obtained from these sources. These data constitute the mortality conditions in the country between these censuses and surveys periods. In addition, the book presents a comprehensive database of mortality indicators. This database includes estimates of the different mortality indicators from different data sources, referred to different official references.
