Countries in Difficult Circumstances

Approaches to censuses in countries having difficult circumstances HIV/AIDS/Causes of death questionsHIV/AIDS/Causes of death questions Counting nationals in other countries (Afghan refugees' census with Pakistan) (18 Aug. 18, 2004 ) Satellite census begins for E Timor (11 July 2004) Mortality as a census topic International migration & Refugees Core national dataset Use of IT/Satellites

What to do for countries where censuses were not conducted? Choose low tech IT? Allow non-statistical demands on census activities/Census lite? Increase the value of censuses? External funding?
