INEGE concludes the Technical Validation Workshop for the Fifth General Population and Housing Census and the First General Agricultural Census

The closing of the technical workshops organized by INEGE with the support of United Nations agencies marks a crucial milestone in the preparation of the upcoming Integrated Census of Equatorial Guinea. The initiative aimed to validate data collection strategies and tools, ensuring their alignment with operational phases and proposing practical improvements to facilitate future implementation. Key technical recommendations were formulated, such as verifying administrative boundaries and conducting coverage tests in hard-to-reach areas. Additionally, the decision was made to expand the agricultural and livestock module to obtain more detailed information on productive activities, enabling a more accurate understanding of the country’s sociodemographic and economic reality. This review is vital for open data, as it establishes the quality and methodological foundations that will determine the availability, accuracy, and usefulness of future data. By ensuring robust instruments, the resulting statistical information is guaranteed to be reliable, up-to-date, and useful for national planning, thereby promoting a culture of transparency and effective use of open data for sustainable development.
