Abstract
The purpose of the census was to provide demographic and socio-economic statistics in Uganda. The long term objective of the 2002 census was to maintain approximate decennial censuses and ensure availability of time series population benchmark statistical information at various administrative levels for the development of a coordinated and integrated data collection system in the country.The enumeration covered all persons resident in Uganda on the census night. Special arrangements were made to enumerate institutional, homeless, hotel and mobile populations. The census collected data on the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the population; household and housing conditions, agriculture, activities of micro and small enterprises and the community characteristics. The main purpose of the Agricultural module was to provide appropriate sampling frames for a detailed Census of Agriculture in 2003, and a Census of Livestock in 2004. There was evidence of deliberate falsification of data from Kotido District. Therefore the analysis excludes data for Kotido District.The immediate objectives of the census were: To create/update census field maps and lists of EAs for the control of the 2002 census and construction of efficient area sampling frames; Effectively complete conducting a Population and Housing census with an Agricultural and Livestock module; To generate basic demographic and socio-economic data from the 2002 census disaggregated by sex, age and administrative areas; To compile agricultural and livestock sampling frames to be used in the subsequent sample surveys of these components; To evaluate, analyze and disseminate the census results at all administrative levels.
