This microcensus was the biggest data collection exercise conducted in DRC since the latest census in 1984.
Implemented as part of the Mapping for Health project, this microcensus was a joint effort by multiple stakeholders and was successful first and foremost thanks to the tireless efforts of interviewers, supervisors and coordinators on the ground in DRC who went to great lengths to realise this data collection.
On the coordination level, a team comprised of staff at Flowminder, WorldPop, the Kinshasa School for Public Health and the DRC Census Bureau co-developed the design, implemented the logistics, monitored progress and quality and facilitated data processing.
Flowminder’s thanks go to all staff, consultants and field staff involved in this activity, and to all respondents who took part in the microcensus.
