Census deadline announced in Kazakhstan
Article: The news on Kazakhstan's revised National Census for 2021
Heard the latest? It's time to update your calendars, folks! The government of Kazakhstan has announced that its national census will take place from October 1 to 30, 2021, not 2020 as previously scheduled.
That's right! The new date was confirmed with the approval of the Plan of Activities for Conducting the National Census of the Republic of Kazakhstan in 2021.
Now, you might wonder, what about the initial plans for the census in 2020? Well, they've been pushed back a year due to unspecified changes.
You know, we've been digging around for more info, but it seems the details about the amendments to the 2020 census related to the September 16, 2020 decree are a bit scarce. Nonetheless, the Bureau of National Statistics is keeping busy with other projects— there's an agricultural census in the pipeline, covering about 20,000 enterprises and 300,000 households in 2025.
And, if you've got an eye on demographics, you might have noticed the internal migration trends in recent years. Roughly 320,000 people relocated within the country in 2022. While these movements could reflect broader demographic shifts, they don't appear to be explicitly linked to any changes in census methodology.
For the lowdown on the 2020 decree's specific impact, it's best to check official Kazakh government announcements or legal documents. Stay tuned for more updates!
