The National Census Reports (NCRs) were prepared by demography experts from the Region, with two reviewers from the University of the West Indies (UWI). The reports present data that highlight trends in the demographic transition of the populations of Member Countries, from youthful to ageing population. The reports also make significant connections regarding education, training, economic activity, gender and fertility. The process of preparing the reports also allowed for quality checks on data, with the support of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin American and the Caribbean (UNECLAC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is hoped that these Reports will benefit the countries through providing the analysis with regard to their age, sex, education, occupation, economic activity and other critical characteristics that are important to aid the formulation of policy and decision-making, both public and private, such as government officials, researchers, academics, members of the business community and civil society. Furthermore, the experience gained, together with the efforts to strengthen capacity, will equip the Region to analyse the results of the 2010 Census.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
