The pilot project will be held on November 18 and 27, 2021.
“We are carrying out a pilot census to test our system next month. We will go into the field and back to the drawing board until it is perfected so that we test our logistical and general preparedness to conduct the enumeration using the new method during the census scheduled for 21-30 April, 2022,” he said.
