Life after the census

Life after the Census: Using Administrative Data to Analyse Society

The 2011 Census is likely to the last in the present format. Whatever system is chosen to replace the census will have a major impact on social science research. Given this, the NILS Research Forum is organising a conference on 9 May, 2012, entitled: Life after the Census: Using Administrative Data to Analyse Society. Its purpose is to inform the debate over the replacement of the census from the perspective of social science.
