Uganda Demographic and Health Survey 2022
he 2022 Uganda Demographic and Health Survey (UDHS 2022) was designed as a followup to the1988-89, 1995, 2000-01, 2006, 2011 and 2016 Uganda DHS surveys. The data collection for the 2022 UDHS was implemented between 20th May and 23rd December 2022 by the Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) in collaboration with the Ministry of Health
(MOH). Financial assistance was provided by the Government of Uganda, the United Nations
population Fund (UNFPA), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), United Nations High
Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and World Bank.
The main objective of the UDHS 2022 was to obtain relevant data on the demographic
characteristics, family planning, maternal mortality and infant and child mortality among the
Ugandan population. Another objective was to collect information on health care services and
activities, antenatal, delivery, and postnatal care, children’s immunizations, and management of
childhood diseases. In addition, the survey was designed to evaluate the nutritional status of mothers
and children, to assess the level of knowledge about HIV and AIDS among men and women,
determine the extent of interpersonal violence and the quality of the drinking water in households.
For the first time the UDHS 2022 included two major topics: (i) Water quality testing and (ii)
Refugee module.
