from November to December 2011 by the Ministry of Social Development and Family Services and Central Statistical Office in collaboration with the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), as part of the global MICS4 programme. Technical and financial support was provided by UNICEF. The survey provides statistically sound and internationally comparable data essential for developing evidence- based policies and programmes for children and women in Trinidad and Tobago and for monitoring progress toward national goals and global commitments. Among the global commitments are those emanating from the World Fit for Children Declaration and Plan of Action, the goals of the United Nations General Assembly Special Session on HIV/AIDS, the Education for All Declaration and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The findings are also expected to be part of the baseline data on children and women for the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This report presents the survey results on a wide range of indicators for understanding the children’s wellbeing, education, health and protection in Trinidad and Tobago. The data will inform the monitoring of national plans and policies related to children such as, the National Child Policy 2017-2022 and the Vision 2020 National Strategic Plan. It will provide useful insights for the draft National Gender Policy and Action Plan and the national health agenda. MICS data will be a valuable input for assessing the investment within the Social Sector towards the achievement of national priorities. 9 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2011: Key Findings & Tables The evidence from MICS will also be instrumental in the longer term strategic planning for the inclusive socio-economic development of Trinidad and Tobago and will support policy and programme implementation to achieve the objectives of the government’s Medium Term Policy Framework, which guides the development of the country. SURVEY OBJECTIVES TThe 2011 Trinidad and Tobago MICS is the third survey of its kind supported by UNICEF and implemented collaboratively by the Ministry of Social Development and Family Services and Central Statistical Office. Its primary objectives are:  To provide up-to-date information for assessing the situation of children and women in Trinidad and Tobago;  To furnish data needed for monitoring progress towards goals established in the national development plans and internationally agreed upon commitments, as a basis for future action;  To collect disaggregated data for the identification of inequities and disparities, to allow for evidence based policy-making aimed at social inclusion of the most vulnerable  To contribute to the improvement of data and monitoring systems in Trinidad and Tobago and to strengthen technical expertise in the design, collection and analysis of data;  To validate data from other sources and the results of focused interventions. An Inter-Ministerial Research Council (IMRC) was established in 2009 to coordinate the social research agenda, promote institutionalization of the conduct of important surveys, such as the Survey of Living Conditions and the Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey, and to encourage the sharing of data across Ministries. The Council is chaired by the Ministry of Social Development and Family Services and has representation from senior research personnel from across the social sector, as well as the Tobago House of Assembly, the University community and the Civil Society. A group of the Council acted as the steering committee for the MICS project and provided technical oversight and some administrative responsibilities. The general coordination and management of the project was undertaken by the Social Investigations Division of the Ministry of Social Development and Family Services. 10 TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO: MONITORING THE SITUATION OF CHILDREN & WOMEN Sample and Survey Methodology Sample Design The sample for the 2011 Trinidad and Tobago Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) was designed to provide estimates for a large number of indicators on the situation of children and women at the national level and for 5 Regional Health Authorities (regions): North West, North Central, South West, East, and Tobago. All enumeration districts (EDs) were defined as primary sampling units (PSUs). The regions were identified as the main sampling strata and the sample was selected in two stages. In each stratum, a specified number of primary sampling units were selected systematically with probability proportional to size. After a household listing was carried out within the selected enumeration areas, a systematic sample of 15 households was drawn in each sample enumeration district. Map 1: Regions of Trinidad and Tobago Note: The 5 regions are North West Regional Health Authority (NWRHA), North Central Regional Health Authority (NCRHA), South West Regional Health Authority (SWRHA), East Regional Health Authority (ERHA), and Tobago Regional Health Authority (THRA).

In order to estimate the value of this indicator with the desired level of precision, the sample size was estimated to be about 6,600 households. A total of 407 primary sampling units were selected, and 15 households were sampled in each selected PSU. A total of 6,020 households were found at these addresses, of which 5,573 were successfully interviewed. Sample weights are used for reporting the results at national and regional level. A more detailed description of the sample design can be found in Appendix A. Questionnaires Three sets of questionnaires were used in the survey: 1) a household questionnaire which was used to collect information on all de jure household members (usual residents), the household, and the dwelling; 2) a women’s questionnaire administered in each household to all women age 15-49 years; and 3) an under-5 questionnaire, administered to mothers (or caretakers) for all children under 5 living in the household. The questionnaires included the following modules: The Household Questionnaire included the following modules:  Household Listing Form  Education  Water and Sanitation  Household Characteristics  Child Labour  Child Discipline  Handwashing  Salt Iodization The Questionnaire for Individual Women was administered to all women age 15-49 years living in the households, and included the following modules:  Women’s Background  Access to Mass Media and Use of Information/ Communication Technology  Child Mortality  Desire for Last Birth  Maternal and Newborn Health  Post-natal Health Checks  Illness Symptoms  Contraception  Unmet Need  Attitudes Toward Domestic Violence  Marriage/Union  Sexual Behaviour  HIV/AIDS The Questionnaire for Children Under Five was administered to mothers (or caretakers) of children under 5 years of age1 living in households where interviews were conducted. Normally, the questionnaire was administered to mothers of under-5 children; in cases when the mother was not listed in the household roster, a primary caretaker for the child was identified and interviewed. The questionnaire included the following modules:  Age  Birth Registration  Early Childhood Development  Breastfeeding  Care of Illness  Immunization  Anthropometry The questionnaires are based on the MICS4 model questionnaire2. From the MICS4 model English version, the questionnaires were customized and pre- tested during the third quarter of 2011. Based on the results of the pre-test, modifications were made to the wording of the questionnaires. 1 The terms “children under 5”, “children age 0-4 years”, and “children age 0-59 months” are used interchangeably in this report. 2 The model MICS4 questionnaires can be found at http://mics.unicef.org/ tools?round=mics4. 12 TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO: MONITORING THE SITUATION OF CHILDREN & WOMEN In addition to the administration of questionnaires, fieldwork teams tested the salt used for cooking in the households for iodine content, observed the place for handwashing, and measured the weights and heights of children age under 5 years. Details and findings of these measurements are provided in the respective tables of the report. Training and Fieldwork Training for the fieldwork was conducted for 10 days between October 24th and November 4th, 2011. Training included lectures on interviewing techniques and the contents of the questionnaires, and mock interviews between trainees to gain practice in asking questions. Towards the end of the training period, trainees spent 5 days in practice interviewing in the following locations: Four Roads Tamana, Cedros, Point Fortin, Barrackpore, San Fernando, St. Augustine, Petit Bourg, California, Cocoyea, Princes Town, Mayaro and Edinburgh. The data were collected by 12 teams; each consisting of 4 interviewers, one editor and a supervisor. There was a field-co-ordinator overseeing the field work activities and reporting to a survey co-ordinator. Twenty six nurses were separately trained to perform the anthropometric measurements. The anthropometry training took place on December 1st, 2011. Given that some nurses dropped-out before the field work, some regions and teams were left without a trained measurer and had to rely on supervisors and other team members who were trained during the pre-test. Due to the challenges with recruiting the nurses, the anthropometry module was not completed at the same time as the other modules of the questionnaire. This resulted in a back log which continued to increase due to the shortage of nurses in some regions. This situation could not continue and the survey team had to temporarily stop the fieldwork and focus on reducing the number of children to be measured. Fieldwork began in November 2011 and concluded in December 2011. Data Processing Data were entered using the CSPro software. The data were entered on 10 microcomputers and carried out by 10 data entry operators. There were also a data processing supervisor, a data entry supervisor and 3 secondary editors to reinforce quality control standards. All questionnaires were double-entered and internal consistency checks were performed. Procedures and standard programs developed under the global MICS4 programme and adapted to the Trinidad and Tobago questionnaire were used throughout. Data processing began simultaneously with data collection on November 14th, 2011 and was completed in June 2012. According to the original schedule of activities, the completion date for data processing was January 13th, 2012. The delays in completion were mainly due to: incomplete questionnaires, discrepancies in the data, slow pace of some data entry operators, and non-adherence to the data processing process. Data were analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software program, Version 18. Model syntax and tabulation plans developed by UNICEF were customized and used for this purpose. 13 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2011: Key Findings & Tables Trinidad and Tobago MICS at a Glance Survey implementation Sample frame - Updated 2009 PAHO Sampling Frame August-October 2011 Questionnaires Household Women (age 15-49) Children under five Interviewer training October-November 2011 Fieldwork November - December 2011 Survey sample Households ͳ Sampled ͳ Occupied ͳ Interviewed ͳ Response rate (Per cent) 6,628 6,020 5,573 92.6 Children under five ͳ Eligible ͳ Mothers/caretakers interviewed ͳ Response rate (Per cent) 1,224 1,199 98.0 Women ͳ Eligible for interviews ͳ Interviewed ͳ Response rate (Per cent) 4,424 4,123 93.2 Survey population Average household size 3.2 Percentage of population living in ͳ Urban areas ͳ Rural areas ͳ North West ͳ East ͳ North Central ͳ South West ͳ Tobago 57.4 42.6 23.5 7.6 38.2 26.6 4.1 Percentage of population under: ͳ Age 5 ͳ Age 18 6.7 24.6 Percentage of women age 15-49 years with at least one live birth in the last 2 years 9.7 Housing characteristics Household or personal assets Percentage of households with ͳ Electricity ͳ Finished floor ͳ Finished roofing ͳ Finished walls 97.5 82.6 99.4 91.9 Percentage of households that own ͳ A television ͳ A refrigerator ͳ Agricultural land ͳ Farm animals/livestock 96.0 95.3 10.9 4.9 Mean number of persons per room used for sleeping 1.52 Percentage of households where at least a member has or owns a ͳ Mobile phone ͳ Car or truck 96.3 55.8 14 TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO: MONITORING THE SITUATION OF CHILDREN & WOMEN Child mortality Early childhood mortality MICS Indicator Indicator Description Value A 1.2 MDG 4.2 Infant mortality rate Probability of dying between birth and the first birthday (32) 1.5 MDG 4.1 Under-five mortality rate Probability of dying between birth and the fifth birthday (36) A Indicator values are per 1,000 live births and refer approximately to 2004.9.

The age-specific fertility rate for women age 15-19 years is also termed as the adolescent birth rate. The total fertility rate (TFR) is calculated by summing the age-specific fertility rates calculated for each of the 5-year age groups of women, from age 15 through to age 49.

THE SITUATION OF CHILDREN & WOMEN Appendix A. Sample Design The major features of the sample design are described in this appendix. Sample design features include target sample size, sample allocation, sampling frame and listing, choice of domains, sampling stages, stratification, and the calculation of sample weights. The primary objective of the sample design for the Trinidad and Tobago MICS was to produce statistically reliable estimates of most indicators, at the national level and for the five regions of the country: North West, North Central, South West, East, and Tobago. A multi-stage, stratified cluster sampling approach was used for the selection of the survey sample. Sample Size and Sample Allocation The sample size for the Trinidad and Tobago 2011 MICS was calculated as 6,600 households. For the calculation of the sample size, the key indicator used was DPT (diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus) immunization coverage. The following formula was used to estimate the required sample size for this indicator: where  n is the required sample size, expressed as number of households  4 is a factor to achieve the 95 percent level of confidence  r is the predicted or anticipated value of the indicator, expressed in the form of a proportion  1.1 is the factor necessary to raise the sample size by 10 per cent for the expected non-response  f is the shortened symbol for deff (design effect)  0.12r is the margin of error to be tolerated at the 95 percent level of confidence, defined as 12 per cent of r (relative margin of error of r)  p is the proportion of the total population upon which the indicator, r, is based  n is the average household size (number of persons per household). For each of the five regions, namely, North West, North Central, South West, East and Tobago, the calculation of n was based on r (DPT coverage) that was assumed to be 72.9 percent, 70.3 percent, 87 percent, 94.5 percent and 77.8 percent respectively, based on the values found in Trinidad and Tobago 2006 MICS. The choice of the DPT immunization rate as the key indicator for estimating sample size was made after examining the likely sample sizes that would be needed for this and other possible key variables such as those relating to HIV. To calculate n (the required sample size) the r values for DPT for each region were used, p (percentage of children age 18-29 months in the total population) was taken as 3 percent, average household size was taken as 3.4 persons, and the expected response rate was assumed to be 90%. The standard MICS default value of 1.5 was used for the design effect deff, since there was some doubt about the credibility of the very low deff values obtained for DPT in Trinidad and Tobago 2006 MICS. Given uncertainties that prevailed with respect to the required sample size, the sampling consultant recommended a sample size of 6,600 households for Trinidad and Tobago 2011 MICS, which is slightly larger than the sample size used in Trinidad and Tobago 2006 MICS. 33 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2011: Key Findings & Tables A number of possible allocation principles were considered for determining the number of sampling units to be enumerated in each of the five regions. These included proportional allocation, square root allocation, cube root allocation and equal allocation. Because Trinidad and Tobago 2006 MICS had relied on proportional allocation resulting in sample sizes that were too small to yield reliable estimates in the Eastern region and in Tobago, 2011 MICS relied on disproportionate allocation based on the threealternative allocation principles – a square root allocation, a cube root allocation and an equal allocation. All possible allocations for the sample used for the Trinidad and Tobago 2011 MICS are shown in Table SD.1. Having considered each of these options, the survey team deemed the cube root allocation as the most appropriate as it was expected to yield sufficiently reliable estimates for each of the five regions especially Tobago.

One option was a sampling frame based on the old administrative regions consisting of counties and wards, and a table of equivalence that links the former structure to a new set of administrative regions consisting primarily of regional corporations, two cities, three boroughs and the island of Tobago with its seven parishes. The survey team also discussed about using a sampling frame that was developed to undertake work done for the Pan- American Health Organization (PAHO) and which was based on an automatic system for sample selection. It was prepared in December 2009 and consisted of a listing of all the EDs by region, along with their size estimates. The PAHO frame was considered ideal for 34 TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO: MONITORING THE SITUATION OF CHILDREN & WOMEN Trinidad and Tobago 2011 MICS and was used for the selection of clusters. Separate lists of enumeration districts have been prepared for Trinidad and for Tobago. The lists for Trinidad had to be disaggregated to reflect the four health regions on the island. The lists had to be cleaned as a number of EDs had no measure of size to the extent that it was appropriate to insert the latest available figure, from either the 2000 census or some more recent survey. A few EDs were extremely small and had to be combined with neighboring EDs before the sample was drawn. In contrast, some other EDs were very large, and had to be segmented, either in the frame before drawing the sample or in the field if a large ED was selected. The enumeration districts were defined as primary sampling units (PSUs), and were selected from each of the sampling strata by using systematic pps (probability proportional to size) sampling procedures, based on the number of households in each enumeration district. The first stage of sampling was thus completed by selecting the required number of enumeration districts from each of the five regions. Listing Activities and Selection of Households Lists of households were prepared by the listing teams in the field for each enumeration district. The households were then sequentially numbered at the Central Statistical Office from 1 to the total number of households in each ED, and a selection of 15 households in each ED was carried out using random systematic selection procedures. Calculation of Sample Weights The Trinidad and Tobago MICS sample is not self- weighting, since different sampling fractions (based on a cube root allocation) were used for each region. For this reason, sample weights were calculated and these were used in the subsequent analyses of the survey data. The major component of the weight is the reciprocal of the sampling fraction employed in selecting the number of sample households in that particular sampling stratum (h) and PSU (i): The term fhi, the sampling fraction for the i-th sample PSU in the h-th stratum, is the product of probabilities of selection at every stage in each sampling stratum: where pshi is the probability of selection of the sampling unit at stage s for the i-th sample PSU in the h-th sampling stratum. Since the estimated number of households in each ED (PSU) in the sampling frame used for the first stage selection and the updated number of households in the ED from the listing were different, individual sampling fractions for households in each sample enumeration area (cluster) were calculated. The second stage probability in this formula refers to the proportion of the sample ED that is listed, in the case of a large sample ED that is segmented; for the remaining sample EDs this probability is 1. The sampling fractions for households in each enumeration district (cluster) therefore included the first stage probability of selection of the ED in that particular sampling stratum, any second stage probability, and the last stage probability of selection of a household in the sampled ED (cluster). 35 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2011: Key Findings & Tables A second component in the calculation of sample weights takes into account the level of non-response for the household and individual interviews. The adjustment for household non-response is equal to the inverse value of: RRh = Number of interviewed households in stratum h/ Number of occupied households listed in stratum h After the completion of the fieldwork, response rates were calculated for each sampling stratum. These were used to adjust the sample weights calculated for each cluster within the stratum. Response rates in the Trinidad and Tobago Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey are shown in Table HH.1 in this report. Similarly, the adjustment for non-response at the individual level (women and under-5 children) for each stratum is equal to the inverse value of: RRh = Completed women’s (or under-5’s) questionnaires in stratum h / Eligible women (or under-5s) in stratum h The non-response adjustment factors for women’s and under-5’s questionnaires were applied to the adjusted household weights. Numbers of eligible women and under-5 children were obtained from the roster of household members in the Household Questionnaire for households where interviews were completed. The design weights for the households were calculated by multiplying the above factors for each ED. These weights were then standardized (or normalized), one purpose of which is to make the weighted sum of the interviewed sample units equal the total sample size at the national level. Normalization is achieved by dividing the full sample weights (adjusted for nonresponse) by the average of these weights across all households at the national level. This is performed by multiplying the sample weights by a constant factor equal to the unweighted number of households at the national level divided by the weighted total number of households (using the full sample weights adjusted for nonresponse). A similar standardization procedure was followed in obtaining standardized weights for the women’s and under-5’s questionnaires. Normalized sample weights were appended to all data sets and analyses were performed by weighting each household, woman or under-5 with these sample weights. 36 TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO: MONITORING THE SITUATION OF CHILDREN & WOMEN Appendix B.

To construct the wealth index, principal components analysis is performed by using information on the ownership of consumer goods, dwelling characteristics, water and sanitation, and other characteristics that are related to the household’s wealth, to generate weights (factor scores) for each of the items used. First, initial factor scores are calculated for the total sample. Then, separate factor scores are calculated for households in urban and rural areas. Finally, the urban and rural factor scores are regressed on the initial factor scores to obtain the combined, final factor scores for the total sample. This is carried out to minimize the urban bias in the wealth index values. Each household in the total sample is then assigned a wealth score based on the assets owned by that household and on the final factor scores obtained as described above. The survey household population is then ranked according to the wealth score of the household they are living in, and is finally divided into 5 equal parts (quintiles) from lowest (poorest) to highest (richest). In the 2011-12 Trinidad and Tobago MICS, the following assets were used in these calculations: source of drinking water; type of sanitation facility; sharing of sanitation facilities; number of rooms used for sleeping; main material of dwelling floor, roof and exterior walls; type of household fuel; presence in the household of electricity, radio, television, non-mobile telephone, refrigerator, stove, washing machine, clothes dryer, water heater, microwave oven, air condition unit, internet service, cable/direct TV, DVD player, cutglass, brushing cutglass, lawn mower; presence in the household of a mobile phone, computer, sewing machine, stereo/radio CD, boat for fishing, boat for pleasure, car/truck, MP3 player, IPOD; and possession of a bank account. The wealth index is assumed to capture the underlying long-term wealth through information on the household assets, and is intended to produce a ranking of households by wealth, from poorest to richest. The wealth index does not provide information on absolute poverty, current income or expenditure levels. The wealth scores calculated are applicable for only the particular data set they are based on. Further information on the construction of the wealth index can be found in Filmer, D and Pritchett, L. 2001.
