Jointly estimating subnational mortality for multiple populations
BACKGROUNDUnderstanding patterns in mortality across subpopulations is essential for local health policy decision-making.One of the key challenges of subnational mortality rate estimation is the presence of small populations and zero or near zero death counts.When studying differences between subpopulations, this challenge is compounded as the small populations are further divided along socioeconomic or demographic lines.
