About PMA2020/Ethiopia
The “Performance Monitoring and Accountability 2020” (PMA2020) project in Ethiopia is
implemented in a nationally representative sample of 200 enumeration areas throughout
Ethiopia. The project is led by the School of Public Health at Addis Ababa University (AAU) in
collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Health and the Central Statistical Agency (CSA).
For the first round of data collection in Ethiopia (referred to as PMA2014/Ethiopia), the
project employed a cadre of around 200 female resident enumerators, 30 supervisors
and 5 regional coordinators to collect data. Each resident enumerator was expected
to interview up to 35 households, all women of childbearing age (15 to 49 years) in the
households, and three to four health service delivery points (SDPs). The survey aimed for
an overall sample size of 7,000 households, 7,000 women and 300 SDPs.
The survey was conducted in the 11 regions of Ethiopia: Amhara, Oromiya, SNNPR, Tigray,
Addis Ababa city, Afar, Gambella, Benishangul-Gumuz, Somali, Harari and Dire Dawa. Due
to resource constraints, estimates are generated for only the first five regions, with the other
six regions combined into one grouping. Data collection was conducted between January
and March 2014. In the first two years of the PMA2020 project, data collection is conducted
twice a year and then annually for each additional year.
