Population and Housing Census 2023

This project consisted of the design and implementation of a system that allowed citizens to quickly, easily, and securely complete the form corresponding to the 2023 National Population and Housing Census of Uruguay.

The development was carried out on a microservices-based architecture with a simple web form, designed by multidisciplinary teams composed of multiple stakeholders linked to the National Institute of Statistics of Uruguay.

As a result of this system, more than 50% of households completed the form via the web, making Uruguay the Latin American country with the highest percentage in this regard.

According to UNFPA, "These data are critical for: planning national and subnational development, monitoring progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the distribution of social welfare programs and infrastructure, election planning, and market analysis, among others."

The project involved multiple challenges such as: determination of household uniqueness, uncertainty regarding demand and its peaks to size infrastructure, accuracy of stored data, and security of the stored information.

This project is linked to SDG 17: Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development / Target 17.19. By 2030, leverage existing initiatives to develop indicators to measure progress on sustainable development and complement gross domestic product, and support statistical capacity building in developing countries / Indicator 17.19.2.
