Enhancing Census Data Dissemination in The Gambia Using Technological Tools

This project explores the use of technological tools for disseminating the data from The Gambia’s Population and Housing Census 2013, including strategies, products, methods, and channels employed by the Gambia Bureau of Statistics. It discusses the challenges, differentials, metadata, and spatial perspectives involved in the dissemination process. The project involves various publications, storage methods, databases, and internet platforms for sharing census information with different target audiences. Technological tools like CD-ROMs, virtual databases, and the Gambia CensusInfo platform are highlighted for spatial analysis and providing relevant data to policymakers, researchers, and the public.
