MICS Round 7 takes a different approach between model base questionnaires and supplementary modules. The relatively short Base questionnaire is supplemented by inserting the Complementary Topics into the Base Questionnaires, selecting the topics of national priorities and relevance.
This approach is documented in the Guidlines for Customization of MICS7 Questionnaires
See the UNICEF MICS website for the most up to date questionnaires for Complemntary Topics.
