Acknowledgments
The author is particularly grateful to Bruno Masquelier who gave useful insights on indirect tech-
niques of mortality estimation. I also thank Philippe Bocquier, Abdramane Soura and Andrea Ver-
hulst for revising the first draft of this paper. Thanks are also given to researchers involved in
EMUIB’s project, who allowed me to have access to the data.
