    • Breakthrough ACTION Malaria Behavior Survey - Malawi Household Dataset

    Metadata Updated: July 13, 2024

    This Malaria Behavior Survey (MBS) dataset includes representative data on the determinants of malaria-related behaviors from urban and rural areas in the Northern, Central, and Southern regions of Malawi, collected between May 26th and July 1st 2021. The goal of this study was two-fold: 1) to provide a better understanding of the socio-demographic, attitudinal, and normative characteristics (also referred to as ideational characteristics) associated with malaria-related behavioral outcomes in the Northern, Central, and Southern regions of Malawi and 2) to determine the appropriate focus of programmatic activities designed to improve malaria-related ideational and behavioral outcomes. This study used a cross-sectional survey design with a random sample of women and men using structured questionnaires. Respondents were selected through a multi-step cluster random sampling approach. The research team collected relevant information from 3,862 households, which included 4,181 women of reproductive age and 1,304 of their male spouses/partners.
