Africa-Press<\/a> – Tanzania<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>PRIME Minister Kassim Majaliwa has launched the country\u2019s roadmap towards its sixth population census that will provide latest demographics and living condition data.<\/p>\n

At least 328.2bn\/- will be spent for the exercise that is set to be conducted in both Tanzania Mainland and Tanzania Zanzibar on August 28, 2022. The Prime Minister announced, Tanzania will digitally collect data using tablets instead of papers that were used in previous exercises.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to urge the public to spare the day for such important exercise,\u201d he said. The premier directed regional and district authorities to embark on a nonstop public awareness campaign to fill the loopholes of empty rumors that could jeopardize the million-dollar process. According to the Prime Minister 95 per cent of the cost will be footed by the republic and the remaining 5 per cent will come from developing partners.<\/p>\n

The cost for conducting population census appear to have slightly dropped from 2.76 US dollars in the 2012 nationwide exercise to 2.16 UD dollar or (3472.2\/-) per head in 2022. The average cost for conducting population census in Africa is between 2.1 and 5.1 US dollars. Tanzania spent roughly 1.16 US dollar during its 2002 exercise.<\/p>\n

UNFPA’s Country Representative Jacqueline Mahon, acknowledged that Tanzania for the first time will develop census mapping and geographical information system technologies in implementing the 2022 census.<\/p>\n

She announced the organization\u2019s support to the government and the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) describing the gesture as part of sustainable development agenda of leaving no one behind.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe at UNFPA have been a technical partner to the government of the United Republic of Tanzania in all previous census in the country,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Since 1961, the country has held a census once every 10 years. Chief Statistician Dr Albina Chuwa announced that the pilot project for the planned population census will be conducted in August this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnlike the previous census, the forthcoming census will be unique. We will collect data as far as provinces in rural areas and streets in urban areas. Initially such exercises corrected demographic and access to social service at village level,\u201d Dr Chuwa said.<\/p>\n

She said the new technology will ensure greater accuracy and speedy processing of data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
