The National Statistics Office of Georgia within the framework of preparatory work of the General Population Census 2024 started visiting and collecting the relevant information in Tbilisi from October 2, 2023. The first phase of work involves listing the buildings and households of the above-mentioned municipalities. The first phase of work includes compilation of the lists of existing buildings and households living.
In this regard, the information meeting was held in the Tbilisi City Hall. The main objective of the meeting was to provide the information to the local and self- governments about the progress of the preparatory work for the General Population Census 2024 as well as to introduce the future plans.
The meeting was attended by the Mayor of Tbilisi City Mr. Kakha Kaladze, Heads of Tbilisi districts and representatives of local self-governments.
The first phase of work started in Samgori, KrtsanisI and Nadzaladevi districts. The field works will last until the first half of December and cover all districts and areas of Tbilisi.
The field work will be conducted by the 900 interviewers trained by Geostat. Data collection is carried out with the modern technologies using tablets.
During the Phase I, the information regarding the country’s households and the number of people actually dwelling in households will be collected. That is necessary for conducting the General Population Census in the country.
It is planned to collect the data of the General Population Census 2024 in the period from 14 November to 19 December 2024. During this period, will be collected detailed information regarding the population size, and composition, as well as social, economic, and demographic characteristics, both at the level of self- governing unit as well as settlements ones.
This information is crucial in order to determine the demographic situation, and priorities of socio-economic developments, and inform the society in the country. Moreover, the General Population Census is an important source for monitoring the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) indicators
In order to optimize the efficiency of available financial and human resources, the Agricultural Census will be carried out together with the Population Census in 2024. Therefore, along with the socio-demographic data, the information on households’ agricultural activities will be collected.
The previous General Population Census in Georgia was conducted in 2014.
