st: combining DHS surveys: what weights to use

Dear all,
I am working with DHS surveys for different countries at one point in time. I want to do regional analysis based on the surveys that I have (currently for 16 different countries).
Does anyone has advice on how I should treat sample weights in this case, if I want to do simple descriptive statistics on the proportion of children that are undernourished or attending school?
thanks,
Gaby
