Conclusion
I.INTRODUCTION (1/2)
Burundi is implementing his 4th General Census on Population Housing and the
first Agriculture Census
We are on the step of
preparatory activities
:
Questionnaire content and designing
Developing and testing applications for data collection (census and cartography)
D
eveloping technical documents and tools for census and cartography
Census communication
Procurement
Etc
.
I.INTRODUCTION (2/2)
Characteristics
of Burundi Population, Housing and Agriculture Census :
₋
Traditional approach
: direct contact with respondents (enumerators)
₋
Field Data Collection Tool: for the first time, TIC:
Computer Assisted Personal
interviews (CAPI)
is planed to be used
₋
We will
collect agriculture data in Population and Housing Census
₋
Modular approach
:
Core module
(during Population and Housing) and
supplementary modules
after
₋
Those two
integrated operations
have :
Same institutional framework
: Burundi Central Census Office
Same budget.
II. IMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON OVERALL QUALITY OF
POPULATION AND HOUSING CENSUSES (1/2)
This generally concerns
developping countries
, Burundi in particular which has :
₋
Uncomplete administrative data set
: c
ivil registration and vital statistics
₋
No
population register
₋
Traditional approach
: face to face interviews, direct collection from
respondents using enumerators because it’s impossible to use other
methodology:
Online questionnaire
Census by the postal service
Based register
Combined methodologies.
II
.
IMMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON OVERALL QUALITY OF POPULATION
AND HOUSING CENSUSES (2/2)
March 2020, WHO’s declaration of COVID-19 as a global pandemic
Countries undertook
public health measures
to mitigate the COVID-19 pandemic:
such as
restriction on mobility
Those measures
have many impacts
on the implementation of 2020 round population
and housing censuses:
planning and conduct of census
₋
Postpone or cancel censuses or some preparatory activities
such as: mapping/listing,
pilot census, training of field staff,
study visits,
development of computer applications
for data collection,
etc.
₋
Extend the duration of enumeration of the duration
: consequence: high risk data
quality of census because
requirements of universality and simultaneity is not
respected
₋
No ensurance to cover all the population
during the Covid pandemic
- For the countries which need to be assisted by
international experts in conducting
censuses
,
cartography, CAPI have to
p
ostpone/cancel the experts missions
-
Financing
censuses is relegated to the
background
,
lack of
funding for conducting
census
III. METHODS AND INDICATORS THAN CAN BE USED FOR MEASURING
THE QUALITY OF CENSUS PROCESSES AND DATA (1/4)
For all developing countries,
census data is the only source of reliable, up-to-
date and disaggreagated data at the finest level
T
his means that census data is
the only informed decision-making tool for
governments and his partners
(local and international)
So,
measures to ensure the quality of census data
must
be taken during the
Population and Housing census implementation

Covering issues
related to the census operation :

TO ENSURE REPRESENTATION OF CENSUS DATA AND BUILT

Our
mitigation stratégies
:
o
Chose in advance data system: data application developped in CSPro and define
data transfer and security system
o
Plan early many training staff programmes: capacity building in data processing
: CAPI, CSPro, spss, etc.
o
A
cquiring, installing and testing hardware and software before
o
Traning staff acquiring new skills
o
T
ake all the measures not to exceed
our census schulder the
:
Field enumeration period: 21 days
D
ata processing duration reduced :
Analysis duration a

publication : 9 months after end of field
enumeration
IV. MITIGATION STRATEGIES DURING CENSUS PROCESSING
TO ENSURE REPRESENTATION OF CENSUS DATA AND BUILT
TRUST IN THE VALIDITY OF CENSUS RESULTS (2/2)
o
Do extensive testing data collection applications (for census and cartography)
o
Regular control plan implementation for data set completeness
during the
field enumeration period
o
Apply a
rigorous data rectification/
imputation
methods during
data
processing
Etc .
V.
CONCLUSION
Burundi is implementing a Population, Housing and Agriculture Census round
2020
The COVID-19 Pandemic still continues impacting 2020 censuses series
Burundi and its partners
intend to reduce the impact of covid-19 on the planning
and implementing as well as on the data quality of this operation
This third UN Expert Group Meeting on the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on
conducting Population and Housing Censuses has been the opportunity to learn
more
Many thanks to UNSD which organized this meeting
