I am trying to compile data on orphans education using stat-compiler and I have realized that there is no data on Orphans vs non orphans education. This information is not available in the KDHS 2008-9 report too.

Is there a way to get this information from KDHS 2008-9 data.

regards

Patrick

The data on the ratio of orphans to non-orphans who are in school do exist in the STATcompiler - see the link here: http://statcompiler.com/?share=156416E6233

However the questions used to determine whether children are orphans or not were not included in the KDHS 2008-09, so the data do not exist for that survey, although they do exist for the KDHS 2003 survey.
