Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

In this survey the stratum variable can be constructed as v024 x v025. In all the DHS surveys I know about, this will give the strata or be the best approximation if, say, v022 is not in the data. The summarize command, and most related commands, will usually not work with weights, but "mean(y), over(x)" will work. For example, for y=v201 (children ever born), here is the syntax:

* Open CDIR50FL.dta

* region or province: v024
* children ever born: v201
* stratum: v024 x v025
* weight: v005
* cluster: v001 or v021 (the same)

egen stratum=group(v024 v025)
svyset v001 [pweight=v005], strata(stratum)
svy: mean v201, over(v024)
