What is the significance of conducting a nationwide population census?

The national census is an important means for China to obtain national information such as national population data, population development and changes in various places, and sex ratio of birth population. The household mapping stage of the seventh national census will begin in June 2020 at 65438+ 10 1 1. What is the slogan of this census? Roll call, I can't do it without you! ? As a member of the great motherland, every ordinary person should understand the significance of the census and how to correctly cooperate with and participate in this national survey.

The seventh national census is divided into several aspects: first, the census object. The targets of this census are natural persons in People's Republic of China (PRC) and China citizens who have not settled outside People's Republic of China (PRC), excluding foreigners who have stayed in China for a short time. Secondly, the content of the census: the census mainly investigates the basic situation of the population and households, including name, citizen ID number, gender, age, nationality, education level, industry, occupation, migration, marriage and childbirth, death, housing and other information. Thirdly, census time: the standard census time is 20201October 1 1 point. Working hours are from June 65438+1October1to February 10, 2020. In other words, in the next period of time, census volunteers and staff may come to the door to conduct a census with their certificates. Finally, the census method: in addition to on-site registration, one of the highlights of the seventh national census is that households can also fill in the census brief form independently.

In the announcement issued by the State Council, the obligation of citizens to cooperate with the census was clarified. There are two links in this census that need to be carried out at home, namely surveying and mapping and registration. The mapping stage is from 10, 1 1 to10,31. During this period, the census takers will conduct house-to-house surveys, and then work with uniform certificates. When the enumerator comes to the door, he can first verify the identity of the enumerator, and then ask the enumerator to register at home. In the registration stage, the census taker will select 65,438+00% of the households to fill in the census form, and then they will also carry out their work with their certificates. Everyone can cooperate after verifying their identities.

In the information report, everyone should provide it truthfully, and must not provide false information, conceal or forge relevant information, and ensure that the information is true, accurate, complete and timely. In addition, this census also adopted a new self-reporting method, which can enter the self-reporting process by scanning the code with a mobile phone. If you want to choose this method, you can explain it when the investigator comes to work, ask the census taker to provide your account number, and declare your personal and family information by yourself according to the declaration requirements. However, it should be noted that households who choose to fill in the information themselves should complete the information declaration before 1 1.5.

The significance of conducting a census is to help the country understand the important national conditions such as population development, sex ratio and birth sex ratio, and at the same time provide a basis for future decision-making. The census is related to all aspects of our lives, which is not only conducive to improving future policies and measures such as income, consumption, education, employment, pension, medical care and social security, but also conducive to optimizing the layout of educational and medical institutions, the construction of service facilities for children and the elderly, the layout of industrial and commercial service outlets, and the construction of urban and rural roads. The function of data can largely reflect the proportion of the population of all ages in China, provide an intuitive basis for judging the aging population and the decline in the number of newborns, and is of great help to judge the development degree of the problem. In a word, the spatial distribution of population in the census can provide a reference for the location of various facilities, and perhaps urban planning will be more reasonable and there is no need to detour.
