About the HIDDIN Census Project

ABOUT THE HIDDIN WORKFORCE CENSUS


HOW WAS THE CENSUS DEVELOPED

The questions in the Census were developed using a Delphi study design throughout 2017. Experts from a number of different stakeholder organisations in Australia and New Zealand provided input into the data elements and questions that should be included in the Census. This was to ensure that the Census would answer the stakeholder group’s questions, and that the questions would not change over time. The Census was then pilot tested by the experts and the executive committees of the partner organisations. The first Census was conducted in Australia and New Zealand in 2018. We have since published the 2018 Census report below, and consulted with HIDDIN Workforce experts from across the work to enable us this year to launch the Global HIDDIN Workforce Census.
