ESCWA launched the “Regional Profile of the Information Society in the Arab Region, 2003-2015,” the last publication in a series that kicked off in 2003 to monitor and evaluate various aspects of the information society in its Member States, and measure the progress towards building such society.

ESCWA, as part of its mission to facilitate regional cooperation and integration, has prepared this e-publication to provide up-to-date register of censuses and surveys implemented in all the Arab countries. The e-publication consolidates information and provide an insight on types and periodicity of surveys and censuses conducted in the region.
