Population and Housing Census (PHC), will generate crucial data for measuring Rwandan Socio-economic progress and for providing an evidence base that can guide national policymaking. House-to-house visits by enumerators will collect information about people living in Rwanda on Census Day – 15 August 2012. 16,500 enumerators, including one for every village (umudugudu), will visit every household in Rwanda. Final results will be published within ten months of Census Day, observing that “data delayed is data denied”.
