About the Project

The NGO Info-center is the only civil society organization that continuously implements activities in regard to the census processes in North Macedonia and has a specialized internet site popis.mk.

In 2021, we conducted a citizens’ online campaign on the importance of the population census and monitoring of the Census 2021 media coverage.

Through its activities, the NGO Infocenter aimed to contribute to the impartial, high quality and reliable information of the citizens about the entire process of the Census 2021, as well as, to educate citizens about why the census is important and why it should be successfully implemented. It was essential to raise public awareness that the census is the basis for planning and implementing successful development policies in all areas of society.
