A meeting of the Advisory Board was held in National Statistics Office of Georgia. At the meeting held in the agency, Mr.Gogita Todradze, Executive Director of Geostat presented to the members of the board information about the implemented work and planned activities within the framework of the 2024 Population and Agricultural Census.
The Population and Agricultural Census of Georgia will be conducted from November 14 to December 19, 2024.The census includes 2 stages:
In the first stage, from November 14-23, the data will be collected by the self-registration method (CAWI). Self-registration is a data collection method where respondents fill out questionnaires electronically themselves, without interviewers, via a computer/tablet/smartphone using a standard internet browser. Using this method is convenient for respondents who do not want interviewer's visit at home or do not have enough time for a face-to-face interview. National Statistics Office of Georgia has created a special web platform, which is integrated on Geostat's website, for those who prefers self-registration https://census2024.geostat.ge/en/
