This study examined how different groups have fared in the process. It also looked at possible factors behind the inequalities. The study examined 11 maternal and child health outcomes and services: stunting, underweight, wasting, neonatal mortality, infant mortality, under-5 mortality, measles vaccination, full immunization, modern contraceptive use by currently married women, antenatal care visits, and skilled birth attendance. It explored trends in inequalities by household wealth status based on Demographic and Health Surveys conducted in 2000, 2005, 2011, and 2014. The study also investigated the dynamics of inequality, using concentration curves for different years. Decomposition analysis was used to identify the role of proximate determinants. 2018-01-10T20:34:21Z 2018-01-10T20:34:21Z 2017-08-22 Journal Article International Journal for Equity in Health 1475-9276 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/29136 CC BY 4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ World Bank Springer Publications & Research :: Journal Article Publications & Research Africa Ethiopia
