What is a Census?

It is the total process of planning, collecting, compiling, evaluating, disseminating and analysing statistical data pertaining to all units of a population at a specified time in a country or a well-delimited part of a country.

Legal framework

Census 2022 was conducted according to the provisions of the Statistics Act.

Field staff

A field force of around 7,000 officers was mobilized for data collection.

Data capture and processing

The data collection exercise was done using the Computer Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI) method. This was the first time Statistics Mauritius made​ use of tablets to collect Census data. Testing was carried twice to assess and evaluate many aspects of the census operations.

However, a Pilot Census couldn't be conducted out due to COVID-19.
