Martins Demographer Trainee Anastasia SEP Vong v Data Analyst Trainee Manuel da Silva Information Technology Offi cer João Correia Freitas Reviewers Ricardo Neupert Jose Lucas Abilio Belo Caroline meenagh Editor (graphic designer) Domingos FREITAS Photographs: Domingos Freitas DNE (staff) vi Preface To the lay person, a population and housing census appears to be a simple undertaking which consists mainly of counting individuals, collecting information about these individuals and publishing respective numbers. This belief is far from true. In reality, the undertaking of a census is a quite diffi cult endeavor which involves the use of a complex strategy to mobilize both people and resources. Ultimately, it becomes the main source of data that serves a broad variety of information needs such as population size, spatial distribution and demographic, social and economic characteristics of people. Census data are used for national and sectoral planning, allocating resources, providing roads, making improvements to housing, constructing schools, hospitals and health care centers, and for analyzing both employment and unemployment trends. Good-quality and timely census results are essential in measuring population trends, both guiding and focusing policies and programs, controlling and monitoring implementation, helping set goals and priorities, and lastly, designing funding procedures. Population and housing censuses are the nucleus of national statistics systems. For the foreseeable future, they will continue to be the main source of data for governments and other organizations in most countries. A unique characteristic of a census is that it is the only source of data for the smallest administrative areas and localities within a country and also for special population groups and trends that change slowly over time. For example, a census allows the study of migrant populations, persons living in disadvantaged areas or circumstances, or households headed by women and other gender-related topics. For more than three decades, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) has been playing a leading role in supporting censuses in less-developed countries, many of which could not have conducted their censuses but for the timely assistance provided by UNFPA. This ranges from support for the total cost of the census in some countries, to technical aspects of capacity-building (especially in cartography, data collection, processing, data analysis and dissemination) in others. In this undertaking, UNFPA has been working in close partnership with other international, technical and donor agencies, especially the United Nations Statistics Division, the European Community, the U. S. Bureau of the Census, agencies within the UN system and the UN Regional Commissions. Apart from its direct support at the country level, UNFPA provides regional technical support through a network of Country Technical Services Teams (CSTs). UNFPA’s technical and fi nancial assistance to less developed countries has contributed to successful censuses in many countries and strengthened their capacities to conduct modern censuses. One clear example of this contribution is the Timor-Leste 2004 Population and Housing Census. Most of the partners mentioned above played an important role in the success of 2004 Timor-Leste Census. It is also important to refer to the generous support of USAid, NZAid, AusAid, and Irish Aid in this process. However, we cannot forget that our main partner is the National Statistics Directorate, and it was this Directorate which conducted the 2004 Census. Neither can we forget the enumerators, supervisors, suco chiefs, district census offi cers, who signifi cantly contributed to the success of the census. vii It is pertinent to stress that achieving an improved balance between population growth and socioeconomic development is the goal of UNFPA work in the area of population and development. UNFPA helps support country efforts to formulate population and development policies and programs; strengthen national capacity in the area of data collection and analysis; and promote knowledge of the linkages between population variables and economic and social development.

  • Walking in Hato Builico Timor Leste
    Blue Mountains East Timor Friendship Committee The Friendship Committee was formed in 2006 as part of an Australia-wide initiative to develop friendship agreements with communities in Timor-Leste. To date, more than 40 councils across Australia have participated. Walking in Hato Builico The Blue Mountains committee is made up of community members, councillors and council staff from Blue Mountains City Council, all committed to improving the lives of the rural community of Hato Builico. A partner committee of residents of Hato Timor Leste Builico assesses the needs of the community and liaises with the Blue Mountains to progress projects. Fundraising events are organised regularly by volunteers. If you live in or plan to visit Australia in 2012, what about raising funds for Hato Builico by joining the sponsored Trek for Timor Blue Mountains on September 15th 2012. 50km or 15km - the choice is yours. www.trekfortimorbm.org.au Members of the Blue Mountains committee visit regularly on self-funded trips to monitor progress of projects and to talk to villagers about their needs. In 2011, a volunteer from Australian Volunteers International will spend extended periods in Hato Builico to work on local projects. Projects so far have included: Refurbishment of a community centre for training and community meetings Scholarships for 43 students to attend primary school, high school and university Collaborations between schools in East Timor and Blue Mountains Hedge seedlings to counteract the effects of deforestation Solar panels for the community centre Two water tanks for the community centre (supported by Rotary) Sports equipment, school equipment, readers and guitars for schools as well as participation in training for sports teaching And of course – this project! Two volunteers from the Blue Mountains spent three months living in Hato Builico and developing this series of guided walks.

  • 3. Promotion of Community Reconciliation and Peacebuilding Process Through Development Projects
    3. Promotion of Community Reconciliation and Peacebuilding Process through Development Projects War-affected communities possess particular mutual characteristics. The evaluation report on post-conflict humanitarian assistance prepared by UNDP and the Japanese government (2002) concludes that many features in post-conflict situations affect all humanitarian assistance projects: Lack of baseline data and lack of reliable information relating to damages and needs of the communities lead the requirement of modification in planning and budgeting of projects. Security issues and the difficulties of arranging logistics delay the projects. The presence of international organisations and personnel raises the prices of every product dramatically in the country and makes for an unnatural economy. This also increases the project budget. Short term contract of staff in international organisations in war-affected countries makes cooperation among humanitarian assistance organisations, as well as the sustainability of projects, difficult physically. In many cases, the recipient government and its administration system are not existing or not viable enough. And there are lack of techniques and the people who have special skills and techniques. This increases the dependency of the recipient countries on international assistance. This chapter will discuss how the development project could or should promote the community reconciliation and peacebuilding process at the community level. Firstly, the author will describe the development projects in Ainaro district. Secondly, the author will assess three particular development projects; aim, performance, implementation structure, relationship with local communities, relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, impact, sustainability, challenges and relation with promoting reconciliation process. Then discuss how the development project could or should promote the community reconciliation and peacebuilding process at the community level based on the lessons learned from project analysis in Ainaro.

  • Analytical Report on Education Timor-Leste Population and Housing Census 2015
    Census 2015 Analytical Report on Education Timor-Leste Population and Housing Census 2015 Thematic Report Volume 11 Education Monograph 2017 Copyright © GDS, UNICEF and UNFPA 2017 Copyright © Photos: Bernardino Soares General Directorate of Statistics (GDS) United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) 1 Executive Summary Education matters. It is the way through which one generation passes on its knowledge, experience and cultural legacy to the next generation. Education has the means to empower individuals and impacts every aspect of life. It is the vehicle to how one develops and understands the world. It creates opportunities for decent work and higher income and is correlated to many other components which can enrich one's quality of life and contribute to happiness, health, mental well-being, civic engagement, home ownership and long-term financial stability. Besides the economic implications, education is a fundamental right of each and every child. It is a matter of fulfilling basic human dignity, believing in the potential of every person and enhancing it with knowledge, learning and skills to construct the cornerstones of healthy human development (Education Matters, 2014)1. It is important to consider those most vulnerable and deprived of learning and ensure they receive the access to education they deserve. Simply stated: all children form an integral part of a country's future and therefore all should be educated. To protect the right of every child to an education, it is crucial to focus on the following components2: a) early learning in pre-schools, b) equal access to education for all children, c) guarantee education for children in conflict or disaster-prone areas and emergencies, d) enhance the quality of the schools, e) create partnerships to ensure funding and support and f) Build a strong education system.

  • Democratic Republic of Timor Leste Country Profile for Emergencies and Disasters
    Democratic Republic of Timor Leste Country Profile for Emergencies and Disasters Context The Democratic Republic of Timor Leste is located in the eastern part of the Timor Island with the western part belonging to the Republic of Indonesia as part of the East Nusa Tengara province. It is bordered by the Wetar straits to the north and the Timor Sea in the South. From the 1511 till 1975 Timor Leste was a colony of Portugal. This was followed by the Indonesian annexation in which the Timorese continued to fight for independence through the guerilla resistance movement. It was a period wrought with violence, human rights abuses and an estimated 200,000 deaths. In 30 August 1999 the East Timorese voted in an historic referendum for independence. In May 20, 2002 after two years of an interim UN Transitional Administration, the country gained its independence. Currently there are still 30,000 East Timorese nationals in West Timor, most of whom have no intentions of returning to the new republic of Timor Leste. An Indonesian Government program is currently working in the resettlement of these East Timorese to Sumba island. Some violent incidents perpetrated At present Timor Leste, with a population of 850,000 ranks as one of the 10 poorest countries in the world. It has a GDP per capita of US$ 478 with 41% of the population living below the poverty line of US$ 0.55 a day. 1 2 The Government is still in its infancy stages however much progress has been made in the rehabilitation of many institutions particularly in education and health- the two priorities of the National Development Plan.
