Hello! I have a related question. Understanding that the Madagascar 2021 survey will not be representative at the district level, can you say whether you would expect results at the district level to be unbiased? In other words, as long as we are careful with sample limitations via standard errors, would a comparison across districts be valid?

The response in this thread seems related and encouraging but perhaps the survey methodology is different: https://userforum.dhsprogram.com/index.php?t=tree&goto=2 6960&&srch=representative#msg_26960

Thank you!
