One of the key sources of indicator data used in measuring the impact of USG/Uganda HIV/AIDS program is the demographic and health survey (DHS). The last DHS in Uganda was conducted in 2006. The purpose of this activity is to provide technical support to the GOU to implement the HIV/AIDS module of the DHS. It is planned that GOU staff from MOH, UBOS, UAC, and other relevant staff from the line ministries will be trained in the whole continuum of survey planning, instrument development, pre-testing, questionnaire administration, field data quality control, data management, analysis, and use. The TBD partner will be expected to develop a short training program that is built upon the standard DHS research assistant training to put together a package that covers these themes which go beyond field data collection. In total, 100 (including DHS research assistants) will be trained in strategic information.
