Description

GEO_BF2003_2021 indicates the region of Burkina Faso where the respondent was interviewed. The variable is integrated to yield units with consistent boundaries across samples.

Labels identify the modern geographic units (regions) contained in each integrated region. Each sample also has its own year-specific non-integrated geography variable. The 2003 Burkina Faso sample has greater geographic detail available in its sample-specific variable.

Comparability

Burkina Faso had 14 regions in 2003, with the capital, Ouagadougou, included as a separate region. The 2010 sample combines Ouagadougou with Centre, resulting in 13 regions.

The Burkina Faso 1993 and 1998 samples are excluded from this variable due to inconsistent boundaries.

The 2014 and 2018 samples correspond to Malaria Indicators Surveys (MIS).
