The Anguilla Statistics Department has commenced the process of education and communication component for the Anguilla 2011 Population and Housing census.
Anguilla by law is required to conduct a Population and Housing Census every ten (10) years. Anguilla’s last census was conducted in May 2001 and thus its sixth (6th) census is due to be conducted in May 2011, having previously conducted censuses in 1960, 1974, 1984 and 1992.
One very important component of the census is its education, communication and publicity activities. This includes components of the census such as user consultations, census education, publicity and promotion of census products. In an effort to create a high level of awareness, educate the population and promote the upcoming Anguilla Population and Housing Census 2011, the Anguilla Statistics Department is launching the Anguilla Population and Housing Census 2011 – Slogan Competition, opened to primary school students.
A slogan is a short memorable phrase which will seek to:
Communicate a message about the upcoming census; and
Fix in the minds of all Anguillians and residents of Anguilla the purpose of this census.
The competition is open to students attending primary education in Anguilla, (including home schooled and tutored children) and commences on May 04, 2010 and closes on May 17, 2010 at 4:00pm. There are no associated fees for entry. Prizes will be given to three finalists in each competition.
Rules, guidelines and entry forms are available from the Anguilla Statistics Department as well as on the Government of Anguilla website www.gov.ai/2011Census
