I am working with the Nigeria DHS of 2008 and 2013, and I want to pool the two datasets. However, ethnicity was coded differently. Ethnicity for 2008 has 11 categories while 2013 has over 200. I would like to know how to group ethnicity for 2013 to produce a final list of major ethnic groups that are comparable with those for 2008.

Thank you
Catherine
