Data Collection Notes
The initial census was conducted in 1981 and surveillance procedures adopted between 1983 and 1989 are described in the published profile of the Farafenni HDSS.A change in data collection and management procedures in 1989 required fieldworkers to visit every compound under surveillance at least once every quarter to update the survival and residency status of every resident. Resident village reporters, volunteers recruited and trained on the recording of demographic events within their villages, keep records of births, deaths and migrations in and out of their villages.
