Main technical and financial support was provided by the UNICEF. The global MICS programme was developed by UNICEF in the 1990s as an international household survey programme to support countries in the collection of internationally comparable data on a wide range of indicators on the situation of children and women. MICS surveys measure key indicators that allow countries to generate data for use in policies and programmes, and to monitor progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and other internationally agreed upon commitments.

P a g e | iii Preface There is increasing evidence to show that children from the poorest and most marginalized populations are the most likely to have their rights denied. A shortage of reliable data makes it difficult for policy and decision-makers to understand the situation of these children and formulate appropriate strategies, policies and programmes. The survey was therefore designed to highlight the nine provinces with the highest poverty rates identified in the 2011 report of the Office of the National Economic and Social Development Board (NESDB) as well as the five southernmost provinces that have been in a situation of unrest. The 14 Provinces MICS seeks to generate statistically valid data on children in the most disadvantaged and vulnerable provinces in Thailand through a systematic and evidence-based approach. This survey provides a unique source of data and information, covering more than 80 indicators in the areas of nutrition, child health, water and sanitation, reproductive health, child development, literacy and education, child protection and HIV/AIDS. Data derived from the survey will help to clearly identify issues that adversely affect the well-being and development of children in Thailand. A more comprehensive understanding of the situation of children in the 14 provinces will enable improved planning for equity-based policies and programme interventions at the provincial level. It will also respond to the national policy to leave no-one behind. In addition, the data are to be used as baselines for several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) indicators in the 14 provinces. The 14 Provinces MICS was carried out at the same time as the National MICS in 2015-2016 by the Thailand National Statistical Office (TNSO) as part of the global MICS programme. The national survey findings report is available through www.nso.go.th or mics.unicef.org, providing detailed results for reference purposes. The survey was made possible through financial and technical support mainly from the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and the National Health Security Office. A joint Royal Thai Government Steering Group guided an initial planning of the survey. A technical group, composed of representatives from key line ministries and local experts, assisted in customizing and adapting the global MICS 5 tools to the local context. We would like to express our gratitude for the contributions from line ministries and organizations, namely the Ministry of Public Health, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Social Development and Human Security, Ministry of Labour, Office of the NESDB, International Health Policy Program, Thai Health Promotion Foundation, Institute for Population and Social Research: Mahidol University, College of Population Studies: Chulalongkorn University, both public and private institutions and the general public. In addition, we acknowledge the expertise contributed by various consultants at global, regional and national level related to sampling, training, fieldwork, data processing and report writing. This survey would not have been possible without the commitment of the NSO at the central and provincial levels, in particular of supervisors and interviewers.

Technical and financial support for the survey was mainly provided by the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) in Thailand. The Thailand 14 provinces MICS 2015-2016 provides valuable information and the latest evidence on the situation of children and women. The 14 provinces were identified as the priority provinces from an equity perspective. The five Southernmost provinces including Songkhla, Satun, Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat were selected due to the prolonged unrest situation in the predominantly Muslim population as well as pockets of poverty that can affect the access to and quality of social and healthcare services. Another nine provinces were selected with an equity focus in other regions based mainly on poverty rate. Please refer to Map 1 for the covered areas. The survey presents data from an equity perspective by indicating disparities by region and province. The Thailand 14 provinces MICS 2015-2016 is based on a sample of 17,210 households that were interviewed and provides a comprehensive picture of children, women and men in the 14 selected provinces.

P a g e | 3 Key Messages and Summary Table of Findings2 Nutrition  Twelve of the 14 provinces have a higher percentage of children under the age of five who are stunted than the national average (10.5 per cent). It is notable that the prevalence of stunting is higher than 20 per cent in four provinces: Narathiwat (29.0 per cent), Mae Hong Son (24.9 per cent), Tak (21.9 per cent) and Yala (21.2 per cent). Moreover, the prevalence of underweight in children under five is higher than the national figure (6.7 per cent) in 11 of the 14 provinces. Children in five provinces: Narathiwat (16.2 per cent), Pattani (14.3 per cent), Yala (12.9 per cent), Tak (11.7 per cent) and Songkhla (10.0 per cent) are more likely to be underweight compared to children in other provinces. Children under five in Buriram province have a lower probability of being underweight (4.7 per cent) and stunted (6.7 per cent) whereas Tak province has a high prevalence of overweight (11.1 per cent), stunting (21.9 per cent) and wasting (8.0 per cent) among children under five years of age.  The percentage of last live-born children in the last two years who were ever breastfed in all 14 provinces is above 90 per cent. The percentage of children who were first breastfed within one hour of birth varies considerably, from 10.1 per cent in Yasothon province to 80.5 per cent in Narathiwat.  The median duration of exclusive breastfeeding (Table NU.5) in most of the provinces is less than 1 month except in Buriram (1.7 months), Nakhon Phanom (1.7 months), Kalasin (2.1 months) and Yala (2.9 months) provinces. As expected, the duration for any breastfeeding is longer, reaching 21.5 months in Narathiwat province and 22.7 months in Mae Hong Son. Similarly, these two provinces have almost double the national average of children aged 0-23 months who are appropriately breastfed (28.0 per cent).  Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD) is the world’s leading cause of preventable mental retardation and impaired psychomotor development in young children. The indicator is the percentage of households consuming adequately iodized salt (>15 parts per million). The percentage of households using adequately iodized salt for cooking is higher than the national level (73.3 per cent) in nine of the 14 provinces. Household use of iodized salt is low in Kalasin (30.2 per cent), Nakhon Phanom (32.2 per cent) and Pattani (32.5 per cent) provinces.  The lowest percentage of low birth weight infants is 6.7 in Kanchanaburi province. Seven of the 14 provinces have a higher percentage of low birth weight infants than the national average (9.4 per cent): Tak (14.9 per cent), Yasothon (12.8 per cent), Songkhla (12.3 per cent), Nakhon Phanom (11.7 per cent), Buriram (10.7 per cent), Kalasin (10.0 per cent) and Yala (9.9 per cent). 2 See Appendix D for a detailed description of MICS indicators ≥ 4 Thailand: Monitoring the situation

In contrast, more than 85 per cent of children in Yasothon, Songkhla and Nakhon Phanom provinces had all the recommended vaccinations by their first birthday. It is also observed that BCG, OPV, DPT, HepB and MMR vaccination coverage in the four provinces is lower than the national level, with the exception of BCG vaccination in Yala province.  Only half of women aged 15-49 who had a live birth during the two years prior to the survey in Buriram province were given at least two doses of tetanus toxoid vaccine compared to the national average of 73.9 per cent.  Songkhla province (9.7 per cent) had almost twice the national average (4.9 per cent) of children under five who are reported to have had diarrhoea in the two weeks preceding the survey. The percentage of children under five reported to have had acute respiratory infection (ARI) symptoms in Kalasin province (4.9 per cent) and Kanchanaburi province (4.8 per cent) in the two weeks preceding the survey is more than triple the national level (1.4 per cent). The percentage of children reporting an episode of fever was observed to be high, ranging from more than 10 per cent to 28 per cent in 12 provinces. However, fever was less prevalent (fewer than 1 out of 10 children under age five) in Mae Hong Son and Yala provinces.  Household members in the North and Northeast regions are more likely to use solid fuels for cooking compared to the national average (21.1 per cent). Use of solid fuels in these regions ranges from 36.7 per cent in Tak province to 75.4 per cent in Yasothon. The main source of solid fuel is charcoal whereas wood is more common in Mae Hong Son, Nakhon Phanom and Kalasin provinces.

However, households in Narathiwat (78.9 per cent), Satun (86.6 per cent) and Tak (88.6 per cent) provinces are less likely to use an improved drinking water source and improved sanitation facilities compared to the national average (95.3 per cent).  Safe disposal of a child’s faeces is disposal of the stool by the child using a toilet or by rinsing the stool into a toilet or latrine. Discarding disposable diapers with solid waste – a very common practice throughout the world – has thus far been classified as an inadequate means of disposal of child faeces because of concerns about the poor disposal of the solid waste itself. It is pertinent to note, in Table WS.7, that household use and disposal of diapers is high in the five southern provinces, with the highest percentage in Narathiwat province (90.6 per cent), followed by Yala (84.9 per cent). Likewise, the percentage of children aged 0-2 years whose last stools were disposed of safely is low in the provinces of Narathiwat (4.5 per cent) and Yala (8.3 per cent).  The percentage of households in the 14 provinces with a specific place for handwashing where water and soap or other cleansing agents were present was mostly lower than the national figure (81.2 per cent), particularly in Pattani (48.5 per cent), Narathiwat (56.9 per cent), Satun (65.4 per cent) and Songkhla (68.2 per cent) provinces. However, Yasothon province (89.2 per cent) and Ratchaburi province (85.5 per cent) have a higher percentage of households with a specific place for handwashing than the national average.

It was found to be extremely high in the provinces of Mae Hong Son (127 births), Kalasin (98 births) and Tak (89 births) compared to the national average (51 births). A similar trend is observed in the high percentage of early child bearing among adolescents in the same age group in Mae Hong Son (21.6 per cent), Tak (19.5 per cent) and Kanchanaburi (16.2 per cent) provinces compared to the national average of 10.9 per cent as shown in Table RH.2. The percentage of women aged 20-24 with a live birth before the age of 18 is below the national average (9.4 per cent) in five provinces (Sisaket, Songkhla and the three southernmost provinces).  The use of contraception among women aged 15-49 years is lowest in the South region at 71.2 per cent compared to other regions in Thailand. Contraception use in Narathiwat, Pattani and Yala provinces is very low, at 35.2 per cent, 43.7 per cent and 54.6 per cent respectively. The most popular contraception method (in 10 provinces) is the pill followed by female sterilization (in Sisaket, Yasothon and Kalasin provinces) and injectables (in Mae Hong Son province), as seen in Table RH.3. A high unmet need for family planning among women aged 15-49 is observed in the three southernmost provinces (24.5 per cent in Pattani, 17.9 per cent in Narathiwat and 13.5 per cent in Yala).  The percentage of women aged 15-49 years receiving antenatal care from any skilled provider is very high across the 14 provinces, ranging from 93.1 per cent to 100 per cent. Women in Tak province are the least likely to attend four or more antenatal care visits (72.4 per cent). The percentage of women attending their first antenatal care visit during the first trimester is lowest in the provinces of Buriram (67.9 per cent) and Ratchaburi (76.4 per cent) compared to the national and regional averages. The coverage of key services that pregnant women are expected to receive during antenatal care is shown in Table RH.7. Only 56.7 per cent of women aged 15- 49 years with a live birth in the two years preceding the survey in Yala province received the three key services of blood pressure measured and urine and blood samples taken, compared to above 90 per cent in the other 13 provinces.  More than 95 per cent of deliveries in all 14 provinces except Tak province (89.3 per cent) were attended by skilled personnel. A higher percentage of women in Ratchaburi (44.4 per cent), Songkhla (44.2 per cent) and Kalasin (34.8 per cent) provinces delivered through C-section compared to the national average (32.7 per cent). More than 97 per cent of women in 12 out of the 14 provinces delivered in a health facility, with the lowest percentages in Mae Hong Son province (89.0 per cent) and Tak province (83.4 per cent). The percentage of women in the 14 provinces who had at least three post-natal health check within 42 days of delivery varied greatly, from 0.3 per cent in Ratchaburi province to 7.7 per cent in Mae Hong Son province. 13 Reproductive Health Thailand 14 Provinces Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) 2015-2016P a g e | 12 Reproductive Health  The adolescent birth rate per 1,000 women aged 15-19 years varies across the 14 provinces.

It is observed that only 45.5 per cent of children living in Narathiwat province were attending an organized early childhood education programme.  The percentage of children aged 36-59 months with whom adult household members had engaged in four or more activities ranges from 77.5 per cent in Tak to 98.5 per cent in Yasothon and Yala provinces. For all provinces, more biological mothers than biological fathers engaged in four or more activities with their children. Mothers in Yala (91.7 per cent), Pattani (77.5 per cent) and Songkhla (72.0 per cent) provinces are more likely to engage in four or more activities with their children compared to those in other provinces. Less than 45 per cent of fathers engaged in four or more activities with their children in all the provinces except for Yala (64.8 per cent) and Mae Hong Son (51.0 per cent).  Generally, less than half the households in all 14 provinces have three or more children’s books. The percentage of children who play with electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets was much lower than the national average (50.9 per cent) in Yasothon (23.8 per cent), Mae Hong Son (20.5 per cent) and Narathiwat (17.7 per cent) provinces.  Children under five in Buriram (10.6 per cent), Narathiwat (12.9 per cent) and Pattani (19.3 per cent) provinces are more likely to be left with inadequate care compared to the national average (6.1 per cent). Mae Hong Son province has the lowest percentage (1.4 per cent) of children left with inadequate care.  The early child development index score across all 14 provinces is relatively high, ranging from 79.7 per cent in Pattani province to 97.7 per cent in Yasothon. As shown in Table CD.5, almost all of the provinces have relatively low scores in the domain of literacy compared to the other domains (physical, social-emotional and learning). Less than 50 per cent of children are developmentally on track in literacy-numeracy in the provinces of Yasothon (31.4 per cent), Narathiwat (39.8 per cent) and Sisaket (49.7 per cent). 17 Early Childhood Development Thailand 14 Provinces Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) 2015-2016P a g e | 16 Early Childhood Development  Six of the 14 provinces had a higher percentage of children aged 36-59 months who were attending an organized early childhood education programme than the national average (84.7 per cent), with the highest percentage in Kalasin province (97.2 per cent). It is observed that only 45.5 per cent of children living in Narathiwat province were attending an organized early childhood education programme.  The percentage of children aged 36-59 months with whom adult household members had engaged in four or more activities ranges from 77.5 per cent in Tak to 98.5 per cent in Yasothon and Yala provinces. For all provinces, more biological mothers than biological fathers engaged in four or more activities with their children. Mothers in Yala (91.7 per cent), Pattani (77.5 per cent) and Songkhla (72.0 per cent) provinces are more likely to engage in four or more activities with their children compared to those in other provinces. Less than 45 per cent of fathers engaged in four or more activities with their children in all the provinces except for Yala (64.8 per cent) and Mae Hong Son (51.0 per cent).  Generally, less than half the households in all 14 provinces have three or more children’s books. The percentage of children who play with electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets was much lower than the national average (50.9 per cent) in Yasothon (23.8 per cent), Mae Hong Son (20.5 per cent) and Narathiwat (17.7 per cent) provinces.  Children under five in Buriram (10.6 per cent), Narathiwat (12.9 per cent) and Pattani (19.3 per cent) provinces are more likely to be left with inadequate care compared to the national average (6.1 per cent). Mae Hong Son province has the lowest percentage (1.4 per cent) of children left with inadequate care.  The early child development index score across all 14 provinces is relatively high, ranging from 79.7 per cent in Pattani province to 97.7 per cent in Yasothon. As shown in Table CD.5, almost all of the provinces have relatively low scores in the domain of literacy compared to the other domains (physical, social-emotional and learning). Less than 50 per cent of children are developmentally on track in literacy-numeracy in the provinces of Yasothon (31.4 per cent), Narathiwat (39.8 per cent) and Sisaket (49.7 per cent).

Cluster Survey (MICS) 2015-2016P a g e | 21 Child Protection  As shown in Table CP.2, nine of the 14 provinces report a higher percentage than the national average (75.2 per cent) of children aged 1-14 years who experienced any violent discipline method. In Songkhla, Kalasin, Nakhon Phanom, Ratchaburi, Tak and Satun provinces around 8 out of 10 children experienced violence during the previous month. Children in Pattani province (15.8 per cent) are almost four times more likely to suffer from severe physical punishment than the national average (4.2 per cent). It is notable that Yala province has the lowest percentage of children who experienced any violent discipline method (34.5 per cent) and the highest percentage of children experiencing non-violent discipline (55.8 per cent). As Table CP.3 shows, the percentage of respondents who believe that physical punishment is a necessary part of child-rearing varied from 21.5 per cent in Yasathon province to 82.7 per cent in Kalasin province, which is double the national average (47.5 per cent).  The percentage of women aged 15 to 49 years who first married/entered into marital union before their 15th birthday fluctuates across the 14 provinces. In Mae Hong Son province (9.1 per cent) it is twice the national average (4.3 per cent) but in Yala province only 2.1 per cent of women are married before the age of 15 years. In all 14 provinces, men are less likely than women to marry/enter into union before ages 15 and 18.  In Sisaket province women are more than twice as likely (21.9 per cent) to believe that a husband/partner is justified in hitting his wife than the national average (8.6 per cent). In the South region, the percentage is 14.9 per cent in Pattani province while in Yala only 2.2 per cent of women justify domestic violence. However, the percentage of men in Yala province who justify violence against women (13.5 per cent) is much higher than the percentage of women. Similarly, in Narathiwat province the percentage of men who justify domestic violence is almost double that of women (17.7 per cent versus 8.4 per cent). By contrast, women and men in Mae Hong Son province are the least likely to justify domestic violence.  All of the provinces in the Northeast have higher rates of children aged 0-17 living with neither of their biological parents compared to the national average (22.7 per cent). The percentages in Buriram (40.5 per cent) and Kalasin (39.6 per cent) provinces are almost twice the national figure. 22 Thailand: Monitoring the situation of children and women Child Protection P a

The percentages are particularly low in Pattani (women 26.1 per cent and men 24.9 per cent) and Narathiwat (women 17.0 per cent and men 14.6 per cent) provinces. There is no difference between women and men in the level of knowledge about HIV transmission. The most common misconception in all 14 provinces among women and men is that HIV can be transmitted by sharing food.  The level of knowledge about mother-to-child transmission of HIV among women and men aged 15-49 years varies. As expected, the percentage of women who know all three modes of mother-to-child transmission is higher than that of men. Strikingly, the percentages in three provinces in the South are much lower than the national average. These provinces are Pattani (women 54.9 per cent and men 47.9 per cent), Songkhla (women 52.8 per cent and men 45.4 per cent) and Satun (women 46.3 per cent and men 33.7 per cent).  Not more than 35 per cent of women and men aged 15-49 years in seven of the 14 provinces expressed an accepting attitude towards people living with HIV in regards to all four questions they were asked. There was no difference between women and men. Only 1.8 per cent of women and 1.2 per cent of men in Narathiwat province expressed an accepting attitude on all four indicators. Respondents were least accepting regarding the indicator of not keeping it a secret if a family member is HIV-positive.  In all 14 provinces, less than 16 per cent of women and men aged 15-49 years were tested in the 12 months prior to the survey and knew the result. Less than one per cent of men in Yala province (0.4 per cent) and Narathiwat province (0.5 per cent) tested in the previous 12 months and knew the result. However, of the women and men who were tested in the previous 12 months, almost all received the result.  More than 90 per cent of women across the 14 provinces received antenatal care from a health care professional during their last pregnancy (Table HA.5). Strikingly, less than half of all women in Pattani (38.4 per cent), Tak (43.8 per cent) and Narathiwat (45.0 per cent) provinces reported that they were offered an HIV test, tested for HIV and received the results of their test.  As shown in Table HA.6 and HA.6M, the percentage of young women aged 15-24 years who have comprehensive knowledge about HIV transmission is slightly higher than for similarly aged young men. However, the level of comprehensive knowledge among young women and men shows great variation across the 14 provinces, ranging from 20.9 per cent among women in Narathiwat province to 72.2 per cent in Yasothon and 15.8 per cent and 68.0 per cent among men respectively in the same provinces. The percentage of young women and men in all the provinces expressing accepting attitudes towards people living with HIV is low, particularly in Narathiwat province (1.3 per cent of women and 1.5 per cent of men). 25 HIV/AIDS Thailand 14 Provinces Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) 2015-2016P a g e | 24 HIV/AIDS  It is observed that in 13 of the 14 provinces less than 55 per cent of women and men aged 15-49 years have comprehensive knowledge about HIV transmission.
