Population-based surveys

Population-based surveys are organized methods for collecting information from a specific group of people within a community or country. These surveys aim to understand characteristics like health, opinions, behaviors, or socio-economic status. Researchers select a representative sample of individuals to ensure the results reflect the entire population. The data gathered helps policymakers, organizations, and researchers make informed decisions and develop programs that address the community's needs. Such surveys are essential tools for gaining a broad understanding of a population’s situation without needing to ask everyone.
