The Census of Population, Households and Dwellings in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) will be conducted from 1st to 15th October. It’s one of the most important and complex projects to be implemented in the last 22 years and it will benefit every citizen of the country.

The goal is to determine the population of the entire country. In addition to the number and spatial distribution, the census will provide data on demographic, educational, economic and other features of the population. These data are essential for economic and social development policies, scientific research, the use of funds from the EU to name just a few areas.

The European Union has given strong support for the Census in BiH by providing technical and advisory assistance worth 4.5 million EUR through IPA funds – providing IT equipment in full, hardware and software, monitoring processes and other technical aspects of the Census. Bosnia and Herzegovina has foreseen a total of 42,625,603 BAM to perform the preparatory activities in 2012 and further to the final results of the census planned for 2015.
