Title: Sierra Leone 2015 population and housing census
Description: "This Gender Thematic Report on the 2015 Population and Housing Census of Sierra Leone represents a new facet to the analysis of previous census reports. The aim is to address issues affecting women and girls during the census, but most importantly, to give some visibility and voice to the specific needs of women and girls, in comparison with males. ... This first gender thematic report, is designed to be user-friendly and accessible to all persons, especially women, in a language that is gender-sensitive. Having a gender report is a necessary pre-requisite for the systematic analysis of gender issues and the subsequent promotion of gender-equitable development processes. It is a first step in creating a more efficient, effective and sustainable planning framework for development."--Page 1.
