The conduct of census usually presents the Government an opportunity to collect useful information on every individual person’s socio-economic and demographic characteristics as well as information on economic and agricultural activities and the dwelling types of every Papua New Guinean households or families enumerated at the time of the census. Since 1980 Census, same set of information has been collected basically for comparative purposes and to monitor changes in the socio-economic profile of both the individuals and the families that make up the population of the country. The 2011 census produced a total population count of 7,275,324 million people, an increase of 40% (or additional 2,084,538 persons) from the population count taken in 2000 Census. This booklet is the first of a number of reports that the National Statistical Office (NSO) will produce and release in the next 12 months. The intention of this report is to provide a snapshot on population count by sex and by various geographical units. The basic indicators that include population count, annual population growth rate, distribution by various geographical areas and household size are provided in this booklet for general information for the public. Apparently, not all the data collected from the censuses are fully utilized particularly by many key agencies of the Government, hence, the huge wastage of efforts and resources on the part of the Government. It is imperative that users in all sectors understand census datasets and use them meaningfully for their purposes. Conducting census is a nationwide event that requires meticulous planning and utilization of huge volume of resources of every Government. Unlike other previous censuses, the 2011 population census was fully funded by the Government with a total amount in excess of K140 million It has been a very challenging three years for the NSO to plan, coordinate, execute and deliver the census to the Government and the people of PNG. Nothing will ever be smooth in undertaking operations of this magnitude with its strict timeline to deliver. Challenges do occur at all stages of the census operation. The Government’s scrutiny on the 2011 census project has intensified in the last 12 months due to delay in the release of the final census figures. The NSO is indebted to the National Government for its patience and continuous support to ensure NSO meet all its obligations to deliver the census.

The conduct of population and housing census is never easy in Papua New Guinea. Collaborative efforts are crucial for massive mobilization and utilization of human and material resources required to deliver census on time. The conduct of 2011 Census would not have been possible without the combined efforts of many organizations and individuals that collaborated in the planning, organization and implementation of the census project. First and foremost the National Statistical Office (NSO) acknowledges the contributions of the National Government in particular the O’Neil-Dion Government for continue to provide funding from 2012 and onwards. It was indeed a bold move on the part of the National Government and goes down in record as first of its kind in the history of census taking in Papua New Guinea . On this note, a special mention goes to the Minister for National Planning Honorable Charles Abel for his leadership at the ministerial level to drive for better outcome to this important national project. The NSO is indebted to the members of the Central Agencies Coordinating Committee (CACC) and the Inter-Departmental Census Committee (IDCC) for providing overall leadership, guidance and oversight on the project throughout the duration of its implementation. The contribution of various technical committees on Finance, Publicity, Security and Logistics and various service providers are also highly appreciated. NSO extend its appreciation to contributions of our development partners namely United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), AusAID and South Pacific Commission (SPC) for providing technical and advisory support in project management on need basis in consultation with Project Management Unit. On this note the contributions of M.S Thapa, Data Processing Advisor is also acknowledged with gratitude. NSO further acknowledges the tireless efforts of the NSO staff, the 22 Provincial Census Coordinators and their District Census Coordinators, supervisors, interviewers, translators, security personnel, logistics officers, editors, coders and the data entry operators for their contribution in their respective line of work. Finally but not the least, a word of thank you to the general public, community leaders, ward councilors, church leaders and the 1.4 million household heads throughout the country for their willingness to participate in providing information required on the 2011 Census Form.

The 2011 Census Final Figures booklet presents the final population counts from the 2011 National Population and Housing Census conducted from the 11th -17th July in 2011. This booklet serves to inform everyone about the population of their respective Local Level Governments (LLGs), Districts and Provinces. The population numbers have been finalized after extensive checking and validation processes to ensure information collected from the census are accurate and reflective of population changes that occurred during the past 11 years since the last population count in 2000. The enumeration of the population included visiting 27,541 geographical census units in 6118 Wards of the 326 LLGs identified and established under the 2007 Proclamation on Wards and LLGs. The numbers represent the population counted with the 10th July declared as the official census night. All persons were enumerated where they slept on the census night. Due to communication, logistics and transport difficulties, enumeration was extended for over several weeks in a number of provinces. The information in this booklet represents the population counts distributed by sex and geographic locations. Detailed reports covering other demographic and social characteristics of persons as well as the household economic and agricultural activities will be produced and released progressively in the next 12 months. The statement on the summary of findings below are based on data presented on the Tables 1, 2 and 3 in the subsequent pages

of this booklet. The population data for the 2000 Census was included in the booklet to allow users to make simple trend analysis

on the population change between the two census periods (2000- 2011)

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS:

The population of Papua New Guinea has reached 7,275,324 according to 2011 Census. It has increased by 40% and at average annual growth rate 3.1% since the last census in 2000. In absolute numbers a total of 2,084,538 persons were added to the population during the last 11 years.

About 39% of the population live in the Highlands region followed by Momase region with 26% while Southern and Island regions make up 20% and 15% respectively.

The annual growth for the Papua New Guinea has increased steadily from 2.2 % in 1980 and currently stands at 3.1%. The Highlands and Island regions have annual growth higher than the national average.

Sex ratio ( number of males to every 100 females) has remained steady at 108 as reported in the last census. Likewise, the household size is 5.3 persons, a slight increase from 5.2 reported in 2000 census.

Of the 22 provinces, Morobe province alone contains almost 9.3% of the country’s total population, reporting a total population count of 674, 810 person in 2011 Census. Eastern Highlands and the Southern Highlands (minus Hela province) are the other two most populated provinces with population in excess of half a million.

Significant increase in population is noted mostly for provinces in the Highlands and Islands. However this is not the case for the provinces in Momase region where population growth rate is comparatively lower.

Since 1980, the population of Papua New Guinea has more than doubled from 3 million to 7.3 million in a matter of 31 years.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION Introduction: National Population and Housing Census is an important national event of Papua New Guinea. It is without doubt one of the major sources of basic socio-economic and demographic data for development planning and policy formulation requirements of the Government. In April 2010, the Government of Papua New Guinea (GoPNG), through the National Executive Council (NEC) endorsed the conduct of 2011 Census as an important national event and providing full funding with directives to all appropriate Ministries and Departments to support National Statistical Office (NSO) to coordinate and conduct the census. The 2011 Census was initially scheduled to be conducted in July 2010, however due to the delay in meeting the targets on certain critical prepara-tory activities such as census unit and household listings, logistics, design and printing of census questionnaire amongst others, the date of enumeration was deferred by 12 months to 10 July 2011. Census coordination: Census coordinating committees were set up at both the national and provincial levels to provide overall leadership towards the coordination of census project. At the national level, the Inter-Departmental Census Coordination (IDCC) committee and its technical working committees on publicity, user advisory, logistics, security and finance were established to provide assistance to NSO. Provincial Census Coordinators were appointed for each province and Provincial Census Steering Committees were set up to deliver the census in their respective provinces.

Census questionnaire The 2011 Census questionnaire had in total 33 questions. Questions from the 2000 census were retained to make comparisons and trend analysis on the demographic and social characteristics of the population. Additional questions on deaths in the house-hold and type of housing materials were included. The questionnaire was extensively tested and evaluated in consultation with the User Advisory Committee (UAC) before being printed for the main enumeration. Enumeration 10th July 2011 was declared as the official census night with the enumeration in most parts of the country done from the 11th -17th July. All persons were enumerated where they slept on the census night. Over 40,000 field officers comprising of interviewers and supervisors were engaged nationwide for the enumeration or the field work. Given the prevailing geographical nature of the country coupled with logistical and transport difficulties, enumerations were extended in some parts of the country.

Funding The conduct of 2011 census was fully funded by the GoPNG. Additional technical assistance on census management, equipment and the advisory support was sought from AusAID, United Nation Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA) and South Pacific Commission (SPC) Data limitations The figures provided in this booklet are final. Nonetheless, the users are advised to be mindful that inevitably some persons are missed or are counted more than once. This dilemma is not unusual and happens in every census worldwide and PNG is no exception. Any issues on data limitations and census coverage in general will be expedited through detailed analytical reports that will be produced and disseminated progressively in 2014.
