Key lessons learned

While there may be a great number of circumstances and situations experienced during the course of taking a census that are unique to each country, there are also many common experiences and hence similarities in the lessons learned throughout the EECCA countries and indeed, across the UNECE region as a whole. In reviewing the responses to the survey a number of common themes emerged. However, it should be noted here that the survey itself was quite challenging, in that it required countries to critically review their last census and succinctly describe those elements that went well and those that did not. For some countries, the results provided an early insight into how their next census might develop in the light of the lessons learned.
