The Demographic Profile of COOK ISLANDS 1996-2002

The objective of this report is to present the major demographic findings of the Cook Islands 2001 census and, where possible, to compare them to earlier censuses. The 2001 census data are compared, evaluated and complemented with the latest available vital registration data. The report also provides population projections covering a 20-year period from 2001 to 2021, and identifies the implications of observed demographic levels and trends on cross-cutting issues such as the environment, health, education and economic activity.
