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 impact 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
the months of May and November 2007.

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 is 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 Gambella 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 150-200 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 the 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
information collected in the area of his/her jurisdiction. Unlike the previous censuses, in this
census enumerators were primary school teachers while the 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 from 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 support. 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 support. Thanks are also due to the United
Nations Development Program (UNDP), the Embassy of Japan, Italian Cooperation, United
Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF), as well as the Dutch and Irish
Governments for their substantial financial support.

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 census enumeration.

The office hopes that the data contained in this Statistical Report will be utilized by all data
users for various development planning.

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 Gambella 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 Gambella Region the census has covered the then existing total number of 224 rural and
urban Kebeles which were sub-divided into 460 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 1994. Twenty eight of May, 2007
was the census day of the third Population and Housing Census of Ethiopia. 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 translations of the short questionnaires were used to
collect data from the foreigners residing in Gambella 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 was used to collect basic data on population characteristics such as population
size, sex, age, language, ethnic group, religion, orphanhood and disability. Whereas 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.

Enumerators collected the data and filled-in the census questionnaire by visiting households
from door to door. All members of the household were recorded on the same questionnaire if
the number of members is eight or less. Enumerators were instructed to fill-in consecutive
questionnaires if the members of the household 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. Three days prior to the census day all households
and housing units were listed in a separate form designed for the purpose. 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 others were interviewed using the
short questionnaire. Residents of hotels, hostels and other collective quarters were
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 orphanhood status of children
under 18 years were collected from all persons covered in the census using the short
questionnaire. Other information presented in this report was collected from a sample of the
population using the long questionnaire. 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. In other words, that the figures presented in the statistical

2
tables that refer to education, economic activity, fertility, mortality …etc do represent the
entire population of Gambella 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 questionnaire. In turn,
the reduction of the 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 contains eight chapters. The first chapter is the introduction of 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 in appendices IA and B and copies of the English version short
and long questionnaire in appendices II to III, respectively are presented at the end of this
report.

It is worth mentioning that due to the use of weights, slight discrepancies between various
tables may sometimes be observed for some of the data collected with long questionnaire.
Since the homeless population is very small as compared to the total population of the
region, tables that deal with education, economic activity and housing exclude the number of
homeless population and the discrepancies are very small. Homeless persons were

3
enumerated using only the short questionnaire because the enumeration took place at night
at the place where they spent the night, 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
conditions were aggregated at region and zone levels and only very few selected
tables are produced at wereda level in printed reports. These 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 and based on
its access policy with regards to the raw data.

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 non-
conventional 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 non-
conventional. 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
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.

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

33
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.

CHAPTER 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.

4.1.1 Type of Disability


The question on type of disability was asked based on the following basic definitions:
 Blind: - Persons who totally lost their vision.

57
 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

58
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

59
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.

4.1.2 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.

60
 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.

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.

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

103
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.

104
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).

CHAPTER VI
ECONOMIC ACTIVITY STATUS
6.1 Introduction

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

137
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.

138
6.2 Data Collection Approaches of the Economically Active and Non-
active 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.

6.2.1 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

139
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.

6.2. 2 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.

140
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.

141
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 6.1 - 6.7.

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
Gambela 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 Gambela 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?

163
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 1994.

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 was

164
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.

7.2 FERTILITY

This section presents the fertility level of the population of Gambela 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

176
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, 2007. 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.

7.3 MORTALITY

This section presents the mortality level of the population of Gambella 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, 2007. 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 12-49 years
of age during the 12 months prior to the date of the census. The answer categories were
designed to know whether the death is related to child bearing or not. If her death related to
pregnancy, childbirth or within two months of childbirth, the information will allow computing
maternal deaths at different levels. The appropriate reference date of death for women 12-49
years of age were given to the enumerator from May 29, 2006 to May 28, 2007.

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

203
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.

204
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. In the 2007 Population and Housing Census, however, the same type of
housing questions was employed. Also, the census collected information whether two or
more households shared some toilet and kitchen facilities.
