ICT skills broadly measures SDG indicator 4.4.1 Percentage of women and men who have carried out at least one of nine specific computer related activities during the last 3 months.

Data Source: MICS

The following data is considered for this analysis:
• Individuals: Women and men ages 15-49 (WM- Individual Women’s Survey and MN- Individual Men’s Survey)

The standard LNOB analysis for ICT skills include the following circumstances:
• Wealth of the household: top 60 or bottom 40 per cent of the household wealth distribution
• Residence: urban or rural
• Education: lower (primary or less), secondary or higher
• Sex: female or male
• Age: 15-24, 25-34 or 35-49

Note: ICT skills at national level are estimated after appending women’s recode with men’s recode along with their respective weights. The national average for ICT skills is reported for women and men separately on MICS Final Reports against which individual results are validated. The average ICT skills at national level may therefore slightly differ from MICS Final Reports due to the use of sample arithmetic mean by MICS.
