Hello, I'd like to ask a question on the rescaling so that the total weight is the same for each country (or survey), so the second option mentioned by Janet above. I read a lot of posts on how to rescale the weights using UN estimates (first option) but I was not able to identify steps for the second. Could you send a link where it is described how to rescale the weights according to option 2? Many thanks.
