1 FOREWORD Statistical data that reflect the socio-economic and demographic conditions of the residents of a country are useful for designing and preparation of development plans as well as for monitoring and evaluation of the impacts of the implementation of the development plans. These statistical data include population size, age, sex, literacy and education, marital status, housing stocks and conditions etc. In order to fill the gap for these socio-economic and demographic data need, Ethiopia has conducted its third Population and Housing Census in May and November The 2007 Population and Housing Census of Ethiopia was conducted under the auspices of the Population Census Commission that was established by a proclamation No. 449/1997. The Commission is chaired by the Deputy Prime Minister and the members of the commission were drawn from various relevant Ministries, Regional States representatives, House of Federation, National Electoral Board and the Central Statistical Agency, serving as the Office of the Census Commission (Secretariat). According to this proclamation, the processing, evaluation and analyses of the data collected in this census as well as its dissemination are the major responsibilities of this office. Thus, the Office of the Population Census Commission is pleased to present the census report entitled The 2007 Population and Housing Census of Ethiopia: Statistical Report for Tigray Region for the users. Subsequently, another report which deals with detailed analysis of the result of the 2007 Population and Housing Census data is in the process of being prepared and will also be prepared and printed soon. Before the conduct of a census enumeration, numbers of preparatory activities were also carried-out. Among the major census preparatory activities the conduct of the Population and Housing Census Cartographic Work was one of the important tasks to be undertaken. During this census cartographic work, urban and rural kebeles were sub-divided into enumeration areas, each having housing units and households, respectively. About 4-6 contiguous enumeration areas were made to form one supervision area. In this exercise for each enumeration area and supervision area maps have been prepared. During the census enumeration, each enumerator was given a map of an enumeration area along with other census documents and he/she was responsible to record all persons and households in that enumeration area without omission and duplication. One supervisor was also assigned to a supervision area and was responsible for ensuring the quality of the i

2 information collected in the area of his/her jurisdiction. Unlike the previous censuses, in this census enumerators were primary school teachers while supervisors were secondary school teachers. It is to be noted that the Population and Housing Census is a huge nation wide operation which could not be undertaken by a single organization. Thus, full cooperation and assistance of government and non-government organizations, donor agencies and the general public have been obtained for the 2007 Population and Housing Census. The office of the Population Census Commission is therefore, very grateful to the Government of Ethiopia for its huge financial and administrative supports. The office is also grateful to the development partners particularly; the United Nations Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA) and the Department for International Development (DFID) for their generous financial, logistics and technical supports. Thanks are also due to the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the Embassy of Japan, the Italian Cooperation, the United Nations Children s Emergency Fund (UNICEF), as well as the Dutch and Irish Governments for their substantial financial supports. Finally, the office would like to express its appreciation for the elementary and secondary school teachers who participated in the data collection and supervision activities; the staff members of the Central Statistical Agency for their invaluable contributions throughout the census operations and also more importantly, the general public as well as the administrators at all levels, who were critical to the success of the census enumeration. The office hopes that the data contained in this Statistical Report will be utilized by all data users for various development planning.

8 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This chapter presents an over view of the contents of the census report entitled The 2007 Population and Housing Census of Ethiopia: Statistical Report for Tigray Region. The report presents the major statistical data that are essential to policy makers, planners, administrators, researchers and other data users in a table format. In Tigray region the census has covered the then existing total of 692 rural and urban Kebeles which were sub-divided into 5619 enumeration areas. The May 2007 Population and Housing Census was the third Population and Housing Census. The first Population and Housing Census was conducted in May 1984 whereas the second Population and Housing Census of Ethiopia was conducted in October, In this third Census, twenty eight of May, 2007 was used as the census day or census reference day. The census has counted people on dejure and defacto basis. The dejure population comprises all the persons who belong to a given area at a given time by virtue of usual residence, while under defacto approach people were counted as the residents of the place where they found (Shryock et al., 1976). In the census, a person is said to be a usual resident of a household ( and hence an area ) if he/ she has been residing in the household continuously for at least six months before the census day or intends to reside in the household for six months or longer. Thus, visitors are not included with the usual (dejure) population. Homeless persons were enumerated in the place where they spent the night on the enumeration day. The 2007 census counted foreign nationals who were residing in the region. On the other hand all Ethiopians living abroad were not counted. In this census the questionnaires that were used to collect information were generally prepared in Amharic. However, English translation of the short questionnaires was used to collect data from the foreigners residing in Tigray Region. In the census two types of questionnaires were used: i) Short Questionnaire (Appendix II) and ii) Long Questionnaire (Appendix III) Unlike the previous censuses, the contents of the short and long questionnaires were similar both for the urban and rural areas as well as for all regions. But the short and the long questionnaires differ by the number of variables they contained. That is, the short questionnaire 1

9 was used to collect basic data on population characteristics such as population size, sex, age, language, ethnic group, religion, orphan hood and disability. Where as a the long questionnaire includes information on marital status, education, economic activity, migration, fertility, mortality, as well as housing stocks and conditions in addition to those questions contained in a short questionnaire. The questionnaires were filled-in by enumerators who went from one household to the next. All members of the household were recorded on the same questionnaire if their number is eight or less and on consecutive questionnaires if their members are more than eight. The type of questionnaire administered to each household depends on whether a household was selected for a long questionnaire or not. The selection procedure was determined by using a systematic sampling procedure as follows. During the three days before the census day all households and housing units were listed in a separate form designed for the purpose. Then, this list was used to identify the type of questionnaire that was to be administered to the households. One out of five households was systematically selected from the list /following scientific procedures/ to be interviewed using the long questionnaire, while the other remaining four were interviewed using the short questionnaire. Residents of hotels, hostels and other collective quarters were being interviewed using a long questionnaire whereas homeless persons were counted using a short questionnaire. Accordingly, information presented in this report that refer to population size, sex, age composition, language, ethnic group, religion, disability and orphan hood status of children under 18 years were collected from all persons covered in the census. However, some other information presented in this report was collected from a sample of the population. Even though information on the long questionnaire was collected from a sample of the population, statistical weights were applied to make them represent the entire population. This means that the numbers presented in the tables that refer to education, economic activity, fertility, mortality etc were made to represent the entire population of Tigray Region covered in the census and not only the sampled population. The fact that the information was collected from a sample of households and not from the entire households does not make the information less reliable. In fact this process is expected to increase the quality of the information collected by reducing the work load that would have been faced if all households were covered using the long questionnaires. In turn, the reduction of the 2

10 work load improves the quality of the data through facilitating a closer supervision during field work and enabling the timely processing of the data collected. This report has one part and contains eight chapters. The first chapter serves as an introduction to the report. Chapter II presents the basic population characteristics such as population size, type of residence, relation to head of household, sex and age. Chapter III presents other population characteristics such as religion, mother tongue, ethnic group and marital status. Chapter IV contains statistical data on disability and orphan hood. Chapter V presents literacy status, school attendance and educational attainment. Chapter VI presents economic activity that deals with current and usual economic activity as well as employment and unemployment statuses. Chapter VII contains data on population dynamics dealing with fertility, mortality and migration. Chapter VIII presents information on Housing conditions and characteristics. Each chapter has a brief description concerning the type of questions asked and the corresponding answer categories, instructions followed by the enumerator while interviewing, basic definitions of concepts, etc. Population of urban and rural kebeles by sex with number of households and housing units and copies of an English version short and long questionnaire are presented as appendices II and III at the end of this report. It worth mentioning that because of the use of weights, slight discrepancies between various tables may sometimes be observed for some of the data collected by long questionnaire. Apart form this, tables that deal with education, economic activity and housing exclude the number of homeless population. Since the homeless population is very small as compared to the total population of a region, the discrepancies are very small. Homeless persons were enumerated using only the short questionnaire because the enumeration took place at night at the place where they were sleeping, and it was not convenient to apply long questionnaires in such situation. General Information The following points are worth mentioning regarding the contents of this statistical report, the supply of the compiled statistical data in print and digital copies and also concerning access to raw data: a) The majority of the tables containing statistical data on population characteristics, education, economic activity, fertility, mortality, migration and housing stock and 3

11 conditions were aggregated at region and zone levels and only very few tables are produced at wereda level. The data will be provided in print and digital forms. b) More detailed information up to wereda and town levels will be provided in digital form on CDs. c) Apart from these, raw data as well as further detailed cross tabulations can be obtained from the Census Commission office up on the user s request. 4

12 CHAPTER-II BASIC POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS This chapter presents population size by type of residence, relationship to head of the household and age classified by sex. Detailed information on the characteristics of the population is also presented for the regions. Theses include type of residence, number of housing unit, household size, relationship to the head of the household, headship rate, population by zones, weredas, towns, urban and rural residence, conventional and nonconventional households, single year and population by five years age group, etc. The type of residence is one of the questions included in the census questionnaire. Type of residence is categorized into two major groups, namely, conventional and nonconventional. Please note that, in Tables 2.5 the population size of pastoralists are added to conventional households, in addition to that, Tables 2.6 and 2.7 also include the population size of pastoralists. Respondents who live in the same housing unit and have common cooking arrangements (eat their food together) are said to be residing in conventional households. The non-conventional population in turn is sub-divided into residents of collective quarters (hotel/hostel and other collective quarters) and homeless. A collective quarter is a housing unit, a building, or a compound in which a number of unrelated persons reside together and share common facilities e.g. boarding schools, prisons, hotels, hostels, etc. Homeless persons refer to individuals without any fixed residence. Pastoralists are people who are wandering from place to palace in search of grass and water for their animals. Almost the same question was included in the 1994 census but the response categories were conventional, hotel/hostel, other collective quarters, nomads and homeless. The 2007 census has also collected information on members of the household and their relationship to the head. The question asked was NAME what is your relationship to the head of the household? the categories for this question are head, spouse, child of head and/or spouse, parent of head/spouse, sibling of head/spouse, niece/nephew of head or spouse, grandchild of head or spouse, other relatives of head or spouse and non-relatives. This question was also included in the 1994 census but there was very much little difference in the categories. The head of the household is any member of the household who is recognized as a 5

13 head by the members. In a polygamous marriage where each of the wives has their own separated households the husband is considered to be the head or member of the household of the first wife. The other wives or other members (e.g. elder son) are considered to be the head of their respective households. The information on age is collected from every individual counted in the census. The question was presented as what is NAME s age? for an infant less than one year of age the enumerator was instructed to shade 00. On the other hand, for a person whose age was 97 years and more all enumerators were trained to record as 97. Age information is recorded in completed years. For instance, a person whose age was 37 years 11 months and 29 days on the census date the enumerator will record it as 37. For those people who did not know their exact age the enumerators have been trained how to probe with the help of historical events in the enumerators manual, which has been collected from the 9 regional states and two city administrations. Apart from this other method that would be used by the enumerators to get an exact age or to make a reasonable estimate of the respondents age are included in the manual. This question was also available in the 1994 census in the same way as in 2007 census. 6

67 Chapter III Ethnic Group, Mother Tongue, Religion and Marital Status In the 2007 Census, Ethnic identity of respondents was obtained through the question What is (NAME S) ethnic group? Ethnic group (nation/nationality) of a person is traced through his/her national or tribal origin. A detailed list of ethnic groups in the country was obtained from the House of Federation. Codes for the ethnic groups were entered from these lists, which were attached in the enumerator s manual. Mother Tongue of respondents was identified by asking the question What is (NAME S) mother tongue? Mother tongue is the language used by the respondent for communication with his/her family members or guardians during his/her childhood. Detailed lists of the names & codes of the country s languages were provided to the enumerators in their instruction manuals. Similar types of questions were used for both the 1994 & 2007 census, except that during the 1994 census question about the most frequently used additional language of respondents was asked in addition to mother tongue & ethnic group. The question on Religion was asked to all persons as What is (NAME S) religion? The possible answers were categorized under the following six groups: Orthodox, Protestant, Catholic, Muslim/Islam, Traditional & Other. Orthodox Christianity includes the Tewahido, Kibat, & Tsega, while Seven Day Adventist, Pentecost, Lutheran, Baptist, Anglican, Presbyterian, Meserete Kirstos, Mulu Wengel, Kale Hiywot, etc. were put under the Protestant category. Jehovah s, Behais, Jews, Hindus, etc. fall under the other category. Those respondents who answered simply Christian as their religion were further asked to identify themselves either as Orthodox, Protestant or Catholic Christian. For the new born children, the religion of their parents was taken, but for those children born from parents that follow different religions, the parents had been 60

68 asked to decide which religion the child may follow in the future. Similar type of question was asked in the 1994 Census. Marital status of respondents aged ten years & older was identified through the question What is (NAME S) current marital status? The responses fell under six major categories: Never Married, Currently Married, Divorced, Separated, Widow/Widower, & Living Together as Husband & Spouse. Never married refers to all persons who were single & had not been married earlier; currently married include those bounded by any kind of marital engagement at the time of enumeration (traditional, church, or municipality); separated couples were also considered to be married unless they have dissolved their marriage agreement. Persons who had been married but whose marriage was dissolved before the census day were put under divorced. Those who responded they had not been married after the deaths of their spouses were categorized as widowed/widower. Those who had been living together as wife & husband (through consensual union), without any formal binding relations (traditional, church, or municipality) were fall on living together. Two additional categories ( separated & living together ) were added in the 2007 census, compared to the 1994, which had only four categories of marital status: never married, currently married, divorced & widower. Tables 3.1 to 3.5 show the results of the 2007 Census on Ethnic Group, Mother Tongue, Religion and Marital Status. 61

110 CHAPER IV DISABILITY AND ORPHANHOOD This chapter presents data on Disability and Orphanhood statuses of the population. Both disability and orphanhood data were collected for every member of the household in the 2007 Population and Housing Census. Three questions on disability status were included in the census questionnaire to measure the status, type and cause of disability. Similarly, two questions on orphanhood status were included in the census questionnaire to measure the type and status of orphanhood. 4.1 Disability Status A person who was unable to carry out or limited in carrying out activities that others can do due to congenital or long term physical/mental disabilities was identified as a disabled person. Short term difficulties due to temporary conditions were excluded. In general, a person was defined as disabled if due to physical or mental injuries could not fully perform activities that other healthy person could do. Based on this UN definition, recommendations and the previous experiences, the following three basic questions were administered in the 2007 Population and Housing Census. These are:- i) Does (NAME) have a problem of seeing, hearing, speaking and/or standing/walking/seating, body parts movement, functioning of hands/ legs or mental retardation or mental problem or other mental/physical damages? ii) If yes, what is (NAME s) type of disability or problem? and iii) What was the cause of (NAME s) disability? The above questions on disability were developed in collaboration with the experts from the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, Confederation of the Disabled and Addis Ababa University Type of Disability The question on type of disability was asked based on the following basic definitions: Blind: - Persons who totally lost their vision. 103

111 Seeing difficulty: - persons with two eyes and with partial seeing ability were considered in this category. Persons with seeing difficulty are those who can t count fingers of hands at a distance of two meters or those who can t identify the individual standing four meters away from them. Persons who lost one of their eyes and became unable to fully see due to the problem in one eye affecting the other were considered as persons with seeing difficulty. Moreover, persons who were unable to do their work without the help of others because of weakness in seeing were considered as persons who have seeing difficulty. A person after wearing a pair of spectacles gets back his sight was not included under this category. Deaf: - Persons who were not able to hear from both ears but can speak were grouped under this category. Hearing difficulty: - Persons who totally lost hearing in one ear and partially hear by one or those who were able to hear partially by both ears were considered as persons with hearing difficulty. Dumb: - Persons who were not able to speak at all but can hear were considered as dumb. Speaking difficulty: - Persons who were not able to speak as a healthy person could speak or persons whose speech couldn t be understood clearly to others were considered as having speaking difficulties. Deaf mute: - Persons who were not able to speak and hear at all were categorized as deaf mute. Disability in Hands: - (Non functional upper limbs) Loss of one hand or both hands, paralysis of one hand or both hands or any other disability in one hand or both hands were taken as disability in hands. Persons who were unable to use one hand or both hands to hold or pick up anything, in attending their day-to-day work were considered as paralyzed in hand/hands. Persons having any other type of disability in one hand or both 104

112 hands not related to above types were considered as having other disability in hand/hands. Disability in Legs: - (Non functional lower limbs) Loss of one leg or both legs, paralysis of one leg or both legs, or any other disability in one leg or both legs were taken as disability in legs. Persons having completely lifeless or inactive leg/legs were considered as paralyzed in leg/legs. Physical Organs Movement Difficulty: - Any other specific physical organ movement difficulties (such as difficulties in seating, keeping balance, sever shaking, coordinated organs movement, etc) other than the disabilities of seeing, hearing/speaking, disabilities in hands or disabilities in legs were taken as physical organ movement difficulty. Mental retardation: - in our census mentally retarded persons were taken as mentally disabled persons having difficulties in learning. A person whose social interaction is below expected and backward having low capacity of understanding, training with difficulties in helping themselves in attending their day to day activities or learning due to undeveloped brain was considered as mentally retarded. Mental Problem: - Persons with mental illness due to unknown causes were not considered as disabled as long as they are treated and healed. It must be understood that there is a difference between mental problem and mental retardation and caution should be taken not to consider mental retardation and epilepsy as mental problem. Other: - Persons identified as disabled and not classified in any of the above mentioned categories were considered in this group. The 2007 Population and Housing Census excludes the following persons from being classified as disabled for they are being capable of performing activities that other healthy persons could do. Persons with one eye or one ear as long as the person is 105

113 able to fully perform activities in the manner or within the range considered normal for a human being, even if his/her other eye or ear is blind or defective, he or she is not considered as disabled person. Unlike in the 1994 Census Leprosy, Epilepsy, and Mental problem (except mental retardation) were not considered as disability. However, they could be causes of disabilities Cause of Disability The cause of disability is categorized in one of the following stated groups: Vehicle Accident: - accidents caused by car, train, rail way, bicycle, Motor Cycle, horse pulled wheeled vehicle etc. Other accidents: - accidents caused due to falling, accidents caused by cattle, falling from animals back or stroke, accidents caused on job, accidents due to electric shocks, accidents caused by fire arms, bullet, bomb, sharp objects, piercing objects, hand grenades etc out of the battle field, accidents caused by hammering bomb or explosive, accidents caused by explosives of mining or quarrying, accidents caused due to accidentally fired bullet and other related accidents. Polio: - virus causing disability of body paralysis. Leprosy: - chronic infectious disease caused by micro- bacterium leprae primarily affecting nerves and causes disability if not treated early. Other diseases (post natal -after delivery):- cause of disability other than polio and leprosy which occurs due to small pox, measles, meningitis, diabetes mellitus, hyper tension, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)/Venereal disease etc. Intra-uterine (in the uterus) Prenatal and during Delivery: - disability caused before birth and during delivery. 106

114 War/mines:- disability caused in the battle field by fire arms, bullet, explosives, mines, bombs piercing objects, and sharp objects...etc and disabilities caused by exploding mines be it in the battle field or not. Others: - disabilities caused different from the above described causes are considered in this category (e.g.:- disabilities caused due to un-prescribed medicine). Unknown case: - if the cause is not known or could not be described by the respondent (e.g.:-mental Problem). It is to be noted that in the 2007 population and housing census disability data were collected for every member of all the households (complete count) where as in the 1994 population and housing census information on disability were collected for every member from every fifth households using long questionnaire on sample basis. Hence, it is important to note this difference when comparing the results of the 2007 census disability data with that of the 1994 census results. 107

165 4.2 Orphanhood Status Orphanhood can be defined as the condition of being a child without living biological parents or a child deprived by death of one or usually both of his/her biological parents. Information on Orphanhood status of children under age 18 (survival status of the parents) was collected on complete count basis for every household member. The data on the survival status of parents for children less than 18 years are summarized as Only Mothers alive, Only Fathers alive, Both deceased (Double orphaned) and Both alive (Non-orphaned) categories. The continuous increase in social problem due to orphanhood in Ethiopia and the lists of topics suggested in the Principles and Recommendations for Population and Housing Census has brought an idea of collecting information on orphanhood in the 2007 Population and Housing Census. Having this in mind, two basic questions on orphanhood status were administered in the 2007 Population and Housing Census. These are: i. Is NAME s biological mother alive? and ii. Is NAME s biological father alive? Using the answers for these two questions, children have been classified as orphaned or non-orphaned. Based on these, children less than 18 years are said to be orphaned if they have lost one or both of their parent(s) by death. N.B: - It is important to note that orphanhood status of children is considered only in relation to their biological parents, but not attached to other kinship relations or other situations. 158

187 CHAPTER V EDUCATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS This chapter presents data on educational characteristics of the population of the Region. The data was collected from members of the sampled household. Three questions on education were included in the census questionnaire to measure literacy status, school attendance and educational attainment. The information was collected from members of sampled households where long questionnaires were administered. However, the information has been weighted and all the figures in this chapter refer to the entire population of the Region. Every person aged five years and over in a sampled household was asked to report his/her literacy status. The two possible alternative answers given were literate and illiterate. In the census, a person is considered as literate if he/she can read and write a simple sentence in any language; other wise he/she is categorized as illiterate. This chapter presents data on literacy status of the population aged five years and over for this Region. Every person aged five years and over in the sampled household was also asked to report his/her educational status. The three alternative answers given were (1) attending school during the census day, (2) attended school in the past but left before the census day and (3) never attended. Those who were attending school during the census day were further asked to indicate the grade in which they were attending. All grades were given codes exhaustively but for the purpose of Presentation and analysis, these grades are regrouped into five categories (levels) as follows. These are (1) pre-school (2) elementary (1-8 grades) (3) general secondary (9-10 grades) (4) above grade ten (including preparatory 1& 2, 10+1, 10+2, 10+3, university education) (5) non regular (adult education and literacy campaign). For this purpose, a grade is defined as a stage of instruction usually 180

188 covered in the course of the school year. The grade in which the respondent was attending during the census was pre-coded and provided to the enumerators with separate code card sheet. Status of school attendance question was also similarly phrased and asked in the 1994 Population and Housing Census, but in 2007, the response categories slightly were different. The modification was done based on the new educational curriculum being implemented by the Ministry of Education of Ethiopia. Data on educational attainment is also given in this chapter. Those who were attending school during the census day and those who attended in the past and left school prior to the census day were asked to report the highest grade completed in the formal education system by further probing whether the person completed that grade in the current or old educational curriculum. The possible categorical answers for highest grade completed question are (1) pre-school (2) grade 1-8 (these are similar in both system) (3) grade 9-10 (new system) (4) grade 9-12 (old system) (5) certificate (old system) (6) preparatory 1 & 2 (7) at least one year in a diploma program (8) at least one year in a first-degree program (9) diploma (old system) (10) Bachelor's Degree (11) at least one year in a post-graduate program (12) Master's degree (13) Doctorate/PhD (14) 10+1 certificate (15) at least one year in 10+2 program (16) 10+2 program (17) first year in 10+3 program (18) second years in 10+3 program (19) diploma (10+3) (20) non- Regular (adult education and literacy campaign). The detailed code for highest grade completed was pre-coded and delivered to the enumerators with separate code card to be filled in the field. Unlike the 2007 census, highest grade completed in the 1994 census was asked for those who were reporting as literate and their highest grades were based on the old educational system. This chapter also presents data on educational attainment for population aged five years and over. 181

189 The report in general and this chapter in particular refers to formal education only. "A formal education is defined as education in which students are enrolled or registered regardless of the mode of teaching used. It includes both 'regular school and university education' and 'adult education'. All regular schools and university education are essentially formal. Adult education, however, could be formal and non-formal. The 2007 Population and Housing Census covered only the formal component of the adult education and all regular as well as university education. Regular school and university education are used to describe the system that provides a 'ladder' by which children and young people may progress from primary schools through universities (although many drop out on the way). Adult education is used to describe out-of-school education, which provides education for people who are not in the regular school and university system and who are generally fifteen years or older (although in some circumstances, younger students are accommodated along with their older colleagues) (UNESCO, 1976). 182

233 6.1 Introduction CHAPTER VI ECONOMIC ACTIVITY STATUS This chapter presents some of the major statistical data of the census on the economically active and inactive population. According to the 2007 Population and Housing Census, the term economic activity status refers to the size and distribution of the work force of economically active and non active population. Persons aged ten years and over who were engaged or available to be engaged in the production of economic goods and services during a given reference period were classified as economically active, while those who were neither engaged nor available to be engaged in the production of economic goods and services during a given reference period were considered as economically non-active. In the 2007 census, information on economic activity status was collected from all persons selected for the long questionnaire and those aged ten years and over. The lower age limit was fixed at ten years realizing that children start to participate in the production of economic goods and services at earlier ages in both urban and rural areas. The long questionnaire was administered only on selected households. The selection was done using systematic sampling methods and covered one-fifth of the total households. However, statistical weights were later applied which makes the figures to represent the entire population. The 2007 Population and Housing Census administered the following labour force questions in four major areas to measure the economic activity status in the country. The data collected on economic activity status are: a) whether persons were engaged in economic/productive activities during the last seven days; b) whether persons will be available for work in the coming one month or reason for not being available during the reference period, c) whether persons were engaged in economic/productive activities during most of the last twelve months or reason for not being engaged ; d) Employment status in the main activity. Every person aged ten years and over in the sampled household was asked if he/she was engaged in any of productive/economic activities during the last seven 226

234 days. If the answer is "yes, code 1 is given, if the answer is," I had work but not at work", code 2 is given. Those who were not working during the last seven days is given code 3, then respondents were asked the next question whether they were available or reason for not being available for work, such as due to attending education, household chores, too young to work, illness, old age etc The same questions were also asked for the last twelve months. When the above questions on economic activity were not clear, the enumerators ask a simple question in another way, that is, the type of activity that a person was engaged during the last seven days. The fourth question is the type of employment status for the main job. This chapter presents the statistical data of the 2007 Population and Housing Census on the economically active and non active population based on the following international standard definitions. Economic activity is defined in terms of the production of goods and/or services that falls within the United Nations System of National Accounts (SNA) production boundary (ILO, 1990a). In this census, economic activity is defined as work, which involves the production of goods and /or services for sale or exchange. In addition, production of goods and services for own consumption or own use is considered as economic activity. These include production of primary products (agriculture, hunting, fishing, forestry and logging, and mining and quarrying), for own consumption; processing of primary products by the producers themselves; production of other commodities where part of it is sold on the market; and own account construction and fixed asset formation (expected life use of one year or more). Such economic activities could be performed for an individual, family or private enterprise, government establishment and/ social organization. The remuneration may be on daily, weekly, monthly, yearly or contract basis. The activities of apprentices are also considered as economic activities. On the other hand, unpaid household chores such as preparing food, cleaning the house, taking care of children are not considered to be economic activities. Similarly, unpaid community and volunteer services are classified as non-economic activities. 227

235 6.2 Data Collection Approaches of the Economically Active and Nonactive Population In the 2007 Population and Housing Census, the same approaches were used in both urban and rural areas in the collection of data on economic activity status, that is, the current and usual status approaches. However, in the 1994 census the two approaches were used differently for the collection of data, i.e., the current status approach was used in urban areas while the usual status approach was used in rural areas. The main difference between the two approaches is the length of the reference periods, that is, the current status approach refers to the short reference period of the last seven days while the usual status approach refers to the long reference period of the last twelve months prior to the census date. With this understanding, care should be taken when comparing the results of the census to that of retrospective data in relation to economic activity status variables by urban and rural areas Current Activity Status Approach The current status approach measures the economic activity based on a short reference period of the seven days prior to the census date. In this approach, all persons aged ten years and over who were productively engaged or available to be engaged during the reference week were considered as economically active. The data collected from household members aged ten years and over was used to divide the population into three mutually exclusive categories: employed, unemployed, and not in the labour force. The employed and the unemployed population together make up the labour force or the currently active population. The employed population based on the current activity status approach consists of those who were engaged in productive activity at least for four hours during the seven days prior to the date of the census. Persons who had regular jobs, or business, or holdings but who were temporarily absent from work (not at work or 228

236 worked less than four hours) for various reasons such as illness or injury, holiday or vacation, strike or lock out, and seasonality of work, annual leave, temporarily closure of establishment were also considered as employed. On the other hand, the third category those who were neither employed nor unemployed during the reference period, following the definitions given for employed and unemployed persons were categorized to be economically non active population. This includes persons who were neither engaged nor available to be engaged in productive activity during the short reference period due to homemaking, education, illness etc. Persons who were not economically active were further asked to report why they were not being active or available to work during most of the twelve months Usual Activity Status Approach In the usual activity status approach, all persons aged ten years and over were asked to report whether they were engaged in productive activities during most of the last twelve months. The usual status approach measures the economic activity status in the long reference period of the twelve months prior to the census date. Those who were engaged in productive activities during the reference period were classified as usually employed. In the cases of persons engaged in agriculture, it was decided to classify them in the usually employed category, if they have worked during most of the main agricultural season of the reference period. Those who were not working during most of the reference period and were actively looking for work or available for work considered as usually unemployed. The usually employed and the usually unemployed persons together make up the usually active population. On the other hand, those who were not engaged in productive activity during most of the last twelve months for the following reasons such as homemaking activities, attending school, illness, old age/pensioner etc. are classified as population not usually active. 229

237 6.3 Unemployed Population and Unemployment Rate The International standard definition of unemployment covers persons who with out work, currently available for work and seeking work during the reference period. According to the standard definition, these three criteria should be satisfied simultaneously. However, the resolution adopted by International Conference of Labor Statistics (ICLS) in 1982, Introduced a provision which allows for relaxation of the "seeking work criteria". It was felt that the standard definition of unemployment, with its emphasis on seeking work criterion, that is, to take active steps to look for work might be some what restrictive and might not fully capture the prevailing employment situations in many developing countries where the labour market is largely unorganized or of limited scope, where labour absorption is, at the time inadequate or where the labour force is largely self-employed. Hence, Ethiopia like some other developing countries utilized a relaxed definition for seeking work and adopted the availability criteria rather than restricting only on the actively seeking work criteria. For generating data on unemployment, an option of the completely relaxed which is based on both seeking and availability criteria of unemployment definition is used in the 2007 Population and Housing Census. The completely relaxed definition of unemployment refers to persons with out work but willing to take up work for wage or salary in locally prevailing term. In other word, the unemployed population consists of those who were not working but currently available for work during the reference period. This includes those who were and were not actively seeking for work or discouraged job seekers. Discouraged job seekers refers to persons who want a job and are currently available for work but who have given up any active search for work because they believe that they can not find it. A person who is looking for work but was temporarily engaged in a productive activity during the reference period is recorded as employed and not as unemployed person. 230

238 6.4 Employment Status Employment status of a person indicates the level of involvement and degree of decision-making in respective activity. In the census, employment status is classified as paid employees (Government employees, NGO s employees and domestic employees), self employed, unpaid family workers, apprentice, members of cooperatives and others. Employment status was asked for all employed and unemployed persons aged ten years and over and those who had prior work experience. In this 2007 population and housing census, statistical data on activity status, activity rate, reason for inactivity, employed, unemployed, unemployment rate and employment status are presented in Tables

271 CHAPTER VII POPULATION DYNAMICS This chapter deals with the components of population dynamics (changes) that are occurring over time and space in the population. Change in population size, composition and distribution over time is the function of migration, fertility and mortality. All the information on population dynamics were collected from members of sampled households where long questionnaires were administered. However, the information has been weighted and all the figures in this chapter refer to the entire population of Tigray Region. The first section of the chapter deals with migration, the second section presents statistical data on fertility and the last section of the chapter contains data on mortality. 7.1 MIGRATION This section presents the level of migrant population in Tigray Region. Information on migration of a population is of direct interest to planning and implementing agencies as well as academic institutions, because migration has a direct effect on the geographic distribution of the population. Moreover, migration has an interaction with other demographic forces as well as other aspects of social and economic changes. In the 2007 census the following three migration related questions were employed. A) Length of Continuous Residence is phrased differently for rural and urban areas of enumeration as follows:- In rural areas: for how long have you lived continuously in this wereda?. In urban areas: for how long have you lived continuously in this town/city? B) Was your last previous place of residence a Rural or an Urban? C) In which zone your last place of residence is found? 264

272 A) Length of Continuous Residence This questionnaire was designed to obtain information on the migration status of persons residing in the region. Every person in the sampled household was asked how long he/she has lived continuously in this current place of residence. In rural area of enumeration a person is considered as a migrant if he/she was born in another rural or town which is different from the current wereda or town of enumeration. Similarly, in urban areas of enumeration a person is considered as a migrant, if he/she was born in another town or any rural part of the country. However, a person is non-migrant, if he/she was born in the rural area of enumeration or in the given town and has been continuously residing there up to enumeration period. The answer categories were (1) below one year (2) one year (3) two years (4) three years (5) four years (6) five to six years (7) seven to nine years (8) ten years and above (9) since birth. This information will allow to identify migrants and non-migrants in the region and to get data on length of year of residence in the current place. Similar information has been collected in the 1994 Census to compare migration related indicators in the region. B) Area of Previous Place of Residence The area of previous place of residence refers to the area where the migrant has been residing before he/she migrated to the area of enumeration. Those who were migrated to the area of enumeration during the census day were further asked about the area of their previous place of residence. The answer categories were urban or rural residence which enables the classification of all migrants as person migrating from rural to urban or from urban to rural. Information on area of previous place of residence was also collected in C) Zone of Previous Place of Residence The questionnaire was designed to obtain in which administrative zone this area of migration belonged. For this purpose every migrant person in a sampled household 265

273 was asked to which zone his/her previous place of residence belong. The answer categories were list of all zones in the country and some of the name of neighboring countries for foreigners residing in Ethiopia during the 2007 census enumeration. This information enables us to compute migration streams to the area of enumeration. Because the editing of this data is not completed the statistical data is not provided in this Statistical Report. 266

293 7.2 FERTILITY This section presents the fertility level of the population of Tigray Region. In the 2007 Population and Housing Census Questionnaire information was collected on both current and retrospective fertility (births of last year and children ever born) from every woman aged 10 years and over. Generally, data on current and retrospective fertility collected in censuses of developing countries are not usually free from error. Data on total number of children ever born may also be distorted due to recall-lapse and socio-cultural factors. Above all, because of the extended family system in the country, the women are likely to include relatives with their own. Again, the various social practices associated with birth of small babies, especially those births that end in early death are likely to have been omitted from reporting. Another source of error in the reported number of children could be the inclusion of still births. These probable errors should be borne in mind while interpreting reported fertility measures presented in this section. In the 2007 census the following two fertility related questions were employed. A) Last Year Births The questionnaire was designed to obtain the total number of births occurred during the 12 months prior to the date of the census. Every woman aged 10 years and over in the sampled household was asked if she gave birth during the 12 months prior to the date of the census and the response of each woman was recorded in the household. The answer categories were age of women and the number of children born alive. This information will allow computing the number of women and the number of children by place of residence at different administrative levels, total fertility rates and age-specific birth rates. The 286

294 appropriate reference date of last year births for each woman aged 10 years and over was given to the enumerator from May 29, 2006 to May 28, Birth information for each woman aged 10 years and over was collected for the 1994 and the 2007 censuses to compute and compare total fertility rate, age-specific birth rate and other birth related information. B) Children Ever Born The questionnaire was designed to obtain the total number of children even born alive for every woman aged 10 years and over. For this purpose every woman aged 10 years and over in a sampled household was asked about the total number of children even born alive in her life time. The answer categories were the number of children living at home by sex, the number of children living elsewhere by sex, and the number of children who died by sex. The appropriate reference given to the enumerator was to interview only women aged 10 years and over in the sampled household. 287

307 7.3 MORTALITY This section presents the mortality level of the population of Tigray Region. In the 2007 Population and Housing Census Questionnaire information was collected for women in their reproductive ages and referred to the total number of children ever born and the number surviving. To get the data, all women aged 10 years and over in a sampled household were asked the total number of sons and daughters they ever gave birth. In the 2007 census the following two mortality related questions were employed. A) Household Deaths The questionnaire was designed to obtain occurrence of deaths at household level. It is based on one year reference period, which refers to an episode of death in the household during the 12 months prior to the date of the census. The answer categories were death by sex and age at death, which allows computing deaths by sex and age-specific death rates at different administrative levels. The appropriate reference dates of death occurrence in a sampled household were given to the enumerator from May 29, 2006 to May 28, Death information at household level was not collected in the 1994 Population and Housing Census. In the 2007 census it is designed to obtain death information at different administrative levels where vital registration system is not adequate in the country. B) Maternal Deaths The questionnaire was designed to obtain child bearing related deaths of women years of age during the 12 months prior to the date of the census.

328 CHAPTER VIII HOUSING CHARACTERISTICS AND CONDITIONS Definition of Terms A housing unit is defined as a separate and independent place of abode, either intended for habitation or not intended for habitation but occupied as a living quarter by a household at the time of the census. A housing unit may at the time of the census be occupied by one or more households or may be used partly for living and partly for establishment. Residential Housing Unit is defined as a housing unit used only for habitation at the time of the census. Partial Residential Housing Unit is defined as a housing unit used for habitation and establishment at the time of the census. A room is defined as a space enclosed by walls reaching from the floor to the ceiling or roof at least to a height of two meters and having an area of at least four square meters (i.e. a size large enough to hold a bed for an adult). Except for bathrooms, toilets and passage ways all other rooms found in the housing unit were considered as rooms. A kitchen is defined as a room primarily used for cooking meals. However, it worth mentioning that especially in most rural areas of the country, due to lack of adequate rooms or space in the housing unit, some persons or some livestock may also spend the night in the kitchen. A modern kitchen is defined as a kitchen that has piped water and a sink. The 2007 Population and Housing Census questionnaire included a detailed set of housing questions that were administered both in urban and rural areas. Information on housing characteristics and conditions were collected on the long questionnaire for all occupied residential and partly residential housing units. When a housing unit was 321

329 occupied by more than one households enumerators were instructed to collect housing units information only from the sampled household. In the 2007 Population and Housing Census the following housing units information were collected: 1. bathing facility, 2. toilet facility, 3. whether a housing unit has traditional or modern type of kitchen, 4. source of drinking water supply, 5. source of power for lighting, 6. type of fuel used for cooking, 7. availability of radio, television and telephone sets, 8. number of rooms, 9. type of waste disposal, 10. whether domestic animals spent the night in the room where member of the household spend the (census) night, 11. whether there was a separate room in the housing unit that was used mainly as kitchen, 12. type of building, 13. type of construction material of walls, roofs, floors, and ceilings, The census also collected information regarding the status of tenure of housing units. Tenure refers to the arrangements under which the household occupied its living quarters. A housing unit is said to be owner occupied, if the occupant household owns it and it is free from rent. Similarly, a housing unit is considered as rented if the household living in it pays rent to a private individual or to Kebele office or to an Agency for the Administration of Rented Housing or to other organizations. There are also housing units occupied by households paying difference in rent. These are households that own another housing unit elsewhere that is rented for a lesser or greater rent compared to the rent of the housing unit the household is occupying at the time of enumeration. 322

330 The data on number of rooms per occupied housing unit and number of persons living per room has been also calculated. Here it should be noted that the averages were calculated for conventional population and conventional housing units. During the presentation of the result, some tables refer to urban areas only, while some others may refer to both urban and rural areas. A few tables refer to rural areas only. During the 1994 Population and Housing Census different census forms with housing questions were employed in the rural and urban parts. The data on housing collected in the urban areas was relatively detailed while the data collected in the rural areas was limited.
