Speaking at a press briefing on the occasion of the end of this operation, Mr. Lahlimi indicated that the High Commission for Planning (HCP) will rely over the next ten years on this database to develop the main statistical indicators, relating in particular to poverty, prices, social disparities, economic and social conditions, as well as the description of the situation of Moroccan families.
At the same time, he stressed that this census represents a crucial step for the prospects projected by the Kingdom within the framework of sustainable development and in consistency with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Returning to the progress of this operation, Mr. Lahlimi highlighted the commitment of households, despite the current context marked in particular by inflation, unemployment and difficult natural conditions, etc. In this sense, the High Commissioner for Planning reported the gradual decrease in cases of refusal, going from 17,676 cases to 3,443 cases on the last day.
The data collection operation from households as part of the 7th RGPH ended last Monday at midnight. The data collected as part of this operation was centralized and secured in digital form at the Data Management Center set up by the HCP for this purpose, and their exploitation has already begun.
