    (University of the Western Cape, 2022) Fapohunda, Tomiwa T.; Stiegler, Nancy
    The population and housing census is the entire official process of enumeration of a country's residents and houses at a specified time. This process includes planning, demographic data collection, compilation, evaluation, analysis and dissemination. The census process is crucial for planning and policymaking to advance the country. In December 2019, there was the discovery of a deadly disease, COVID-19, which later spread globally and emerged to be a pandemic. The pandemic had detrimental effects on various aspects of life and especially on the census process in over seventy countries.
