U.S. Census Bureau Releases Technical Notes on Select Topics in International Censuses

Press Release Number CB22-TPS.24

Notes Now Available for Geospatial Data Disclosure Avoidance and the Census, and Measuring Work and Labor Market Participation in a Census

MARCH 11, 2022 — The U.S. Census Bureau’s International Programs Center is releasing a series of technical notes on Select Topics in International Censuses (STIC). Each note highlights a new subject, method, or operation relevant to census planners in middle- to low-income countries. These notes complement the U.N. Principles and Recommendations on Population and Housing Censuses by describing certain topics in more detail. Sponsored by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the STIC series is designed for staff in national statistical offices to assist them in addressing some of the significant issues in the 2020 round of censuses.

The following new technical notes are now available.

This technical note discusses key concepts in geospatial disclosure avoidance and includes a process overview with an example case for implementation. This note builds on the material presented in the previously released “Disclosure Avoidance and the Census” technical note.

 This technical note discusses questions to measure economic characteristics in a census and applications of new concepts about labor supply. It focuses on labor force classifications, employment, and its related characteristics.
