Belarusians to be asked if they plan to have children

During the upcoming population census, Belarusians for the first time will be asked if they plan to have children. Another question will concern their labor status. This will give a complete picture of employment in a particular city or village. For the first time respondents will have to inform how extensive their household plots are. The census will be held in October 2019. Another innovation is that it will be possible to fill in the questionnaire on the Internet. Large enterprises organize the work of mobile groups. For example, in the Mogilev region more than 300 applications were filed. The campaign will involve almost one and a half thousand census takers, including student volunteers.
