Technical Assistance for population and housing census data processing

The quality of population and housing census data is crucial, among others for building public trust and understanding in official statistics. Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) being a potential country for EU accession, the Council of Ministers of BiH has invited the European Commission to organise the international monitoring of the Census. Statistical institutions in BiH share similar problems: insufficient human resources, budget restrictions, junior staff insufficiently trained for independent work. Faster harmonisation of BiH statistics with EU standards and the production of a larger number of indicators cannot be expected without external support. After data processing and production of quality statistics, our team’s final objective was to disseminate statistical data to a wide range of users (national and international). Through this technical assistance, ADE ensured high-quality, internationally recognised and comparable results on Population and Housing Census in BiH as the basis for strategic planning of BiH society.
