In April 2013, the Gambia conducts its population and housing census. The Gambia conducts the Population and Housing Census every ten years.

“The most comprehensive information on the population, age structures, spatial distribution, sociodemographic, and socioeconomic characteristics of households, as well as housing conditions, is provided by a national census.”

The law prohibits the publication of personal information, so only aggregate data will be published. GBoS will guarantee that individual subtleties are shielded and eliminated from any data utilized in its work or imparted to different clients.”

“In the digital PHC of 2023, tablets will be used to collect data rather than traditional paper questionnaires.” The location of all buildings will also be recorded by the census using the Geographic Positioning System (GPS). High level information quality affirmation methods, including the utilization of constant information quality observing and identification following dashboard for complete and precise information will be set up for productive and compelling execution of the evaluation.”
