Estimating completeness of adult mortality data at sub-national level

The report, Estimating completeness of adult mortality data at sub-national level, "is a response to the need for data at subnational levels, to meet the national and global health and developmental targets. Subnational mortality levels make up the aggregate national picture, which ultimately makes up the world picture. The importance of adult mortality in particular has also been highlighted in relation to its social consequences – child orphanhood and living arrangements."
