Sierra Leone Demographic and Health Survey Preliminary Report

The 2008 Sierra Leone Demographic and Health survey represents the continued efforts in Sierra Leone to obtain reliable and accurate data on fertility behaviour, contraceptive practice, and other reproductive health issues.  The survey results are critical and timely as additional information is provided relating to child survival and knowledge regarding HIV/AIDS.  Such wealth of information will no doubt be tremendously useful in charting future directions for the population and health programmes including monitoring, evaluation, and research.

Statistical Report on Sierra Leone Integrated Household Survey (SLIHS) 2003/04..[pdf]

This paper documents the Sierra Leone Integrated Household Survey (SLIHS) which focussed on the household as the basic economic and social unit, which can provide detailed and valuable information about living conditions in Sierra Leone. The SLIHS is a nationally representative data set collected between April 2003 and March 2004. It is the first post-conflict large-scale nationally representative survey in Sierra Leone.


2004 Population and Housing Census

The last census that was held in Sierra Leone was in 1985 and according to normal procedure, there should have been another census in 1995 but due the eleven-year war, it was not possible and the 1985 census data had become completely obsolete and needed to be updated. Therefore the main objectives of the 2004 population and Housing Census were: To help ensure the availability of a time series of population data to support socio-economic development planning and population programmes as well as to contribute to the development of national capacity for statistical enquiries; Continue the regular pattern of the conduct of censuses in Sierra Leone as a continuing scheme of statistical data collection; Provide information on housing conditions in the country after the eleven-year war.
