The primary objective of the Census is to determine the official count of the number of persons and households in Kiribati in 2020 and can be used to compare their socio-economic characteristics with those 5 years ago collected in the 2015 Population Census. Results of the census are most useful for government of Kiribati for planning and policy formulation and thus have a direct impact on the Kiribati population.
Taken every 10 years, the census information is an important development planning resource available to Government, Province and Local Administrations, International Agencies, NGO's, businesses, communities and the general public.
