Population Censuses and Surveys
A number of adhoc surveys and censuses have been conducted by the
Bureau. The major censuses include Population and Housing and Agriculture.
These are conducted every ten years. The latest census of population and
housing was conducted in 2007.
Surveys on the other hand are of various types and are conducted more
regularly depending on resources availability. The 2002-03 HIES report
has been released. The Preliminary results of the Employment and
Unemployment Survey [EUS] 2004-2005 has been released also. The Preliminary Report on Poverty
and Household Incomes in Fiji in 2008-2009 (2008-09 HIES results) has been released in
September 2010.
While a number of different types of reports have been produced by the
Bureau from these undertakings, only basic table of results are presented
in this website. Complete and more detailed reports based on the results
of these undertakings can be obtained from the Bureau.
