UNFPA/IUSSP Project on Demographic Estimation from Limited and Defective Data
SCOPE OF PROJECT
The project was to develop a suite of resources that sets out and explains the wide variety of methods available to estimate demographic parameters from census and survey data suitable for use both by the staff of national statistical offices and by professional demographers across the globe. The resources should be sufficiently simple to allow national statistical office staff (who may not be trained demographers) to make informed choices between methods of demographic estimation and to guide them through the implementation and operationalisation of the chosen methods, while simultaneously offering much greater detail for the benefit of professional demographers.
