The population census involves the collection, compilation, evaluation, analysis, publication and dissemination of demographic, social and economic statistics relating to Ghana's population.
The housing Census also implies the collection, compilation, evaluation, analysis, publication, and dissemination of statistical data pertaining to living quarters in Ghana and their occupants.
