are based on the outputs of a multi-year project
(1997-2001) executed by the Statistics Division
of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission
for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP). The project,
Application of New Technology in Population
Data Collection, Processing, Dissemination and
Presentation (RAS/96/P12), was generously funded
by the UNFPA. A number of census and statistical
organizations in the region provided extensive
substantive support and expert resources to
the project. The main thrust of the project
was to promote the adoption and effective utilization
of new technology in population data collection,
processing, dissemination and presentation in
the countries of the ESCAP region. |
