Counting the People

The publication comprises proceedings of four regional workshops held in 2005-2007 in Cameroon, Cambodia, Panama, and Cape Verde. The goal was to assist countries in their participation in the 2010 World Populations and Housing Census Programme, through extensive review of international recommendations and coordination, national experience and donor support activities. The book contains edited and shortened versions of the technical papers presented at the workshops and a summary of findings and conclusions. The CD-ROM contains the present book in its entirety in PDF format, all original workshop presentations, reports of the workshops, and lists of workshop participants and programmes. It also includes the individual country reports in their original formats. Each country report is preceded by a short summary prepared by the editors.
