SMS Monitoring Survey: Zika Prevention Knowledge and Behaviors in Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras
To inform and support the Zika communication activities in the Latin American and Caribbean region, HC3 conducted a quantitative short message service (SMS) survey in the four focus countries of the USAID Zika Response (El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Dominican Republic) to derive estimates for specific Zika-related knowledge and prevention behavior.
The target population for the SMS survey was women and men of reproductive age living in specific geographic areas in each country where USAID-funded programs were being implemented.
This work was initially conceived and developed as a monitoring activity to feed specific USAID-prioritized indicators on knowledge and prevention of Zika. This report details the results of the first of three waves of this survey, conducted in January and February 2017.
