  abstract = {{T}his short paper presents the results of an exploratory pilot survey on {HIV}-{AIDS} screening ({DOD}-{CI}) conducted in {C}{\^o}te d'{I}voire to test the feasibility and representativeness of a national general population survey based on a random sample of mobile phone numbers. {T}he refusal rate was low, and below the levels habitually observed for similar surveys conducted in {F}rance. {I}n terms of representativeness, the sample obtained was younger, more urban and more masculine than the population in general. {F}our {HIV}-{AIDS} screening indicators were compared with those obtained in the {D}emographic and {H}ealth survey ({DHS}) conducted in 2011-2012. {O}wing to differences in selection biases affecting the two surveys, the indicators were higher than those observed in the {DHS} 2011-2012. {H}owever, the differences observed by sex, age group, level of education and place of residence were similar. {T}his confirms the feasibility of applying such an approach for a national survey in {C}{\^o}te d'{I}voire, providing that several adjustments are made, such as including non-subscribers living in the same household as a mobile phone subscriber.},
