The MDGs
Set in 2000 and endorsed by leaders from 192 countries Baseline = 1990 Endline = 2015

Country Profiles
Equity in the Countdown
Equity: Mean coverage index / coverage gap
- Single summary
measure – mean coverage with 8 key interventions
- Allows easy
comparison over time and across countries
Equity: Mean coverage index / coverage gap
Coverage among the richest Coverage among the poorest
Magnitude of inequity ranges: mean coverage index (Q5-Q1), 38 countries
Mean coverage index (Q5-Q1) by country Variability in magnitude of inequities in countries with 50-60% overall coverage
Magnitude in inequities by intervention in 38 countries
Poorest 2 3 4 Least poor 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
Co-coverage
How many interventions does each child receive?
Co-coverage: methods
- Selected 9 preventive child
survival interventions measured through DHS
– water – antenatal care (>= 4 visits) – skilled delivery – TT (2 doses in pregnancy) – BCG – DPT (3 doses) – measles vaccine – vitamin A – bednets
- Calculated how many of these
interventions were received by each child aged 1-4 years
- Used DHS and MICS data
- Calculated asset index to
classify wealth quintiles
- Described patterns of inequities
in co-coverage by socioeconomic groups

Disseminate essential interventions widely Target the poor Continue to disseminate widely, give special attention to the poor
