Inventory of Population Projects in Developing Countries around the World, 1976/77

Abstract

The 15th edition of the INVENTORY shows at a glance by country internationally-assisted population projects funded inaugurated or being carried out by multilateral bilateral and non-governmental and other agencies and organizations during the period from 1 January 1987-30 June 1988. Whenever possible projects that may have been funded prior to 1987 and that are still being carried out in 1987-1988 are shown. However it is a good idea to use this INVENTORY in conjunction with the 1986-1987 edition. The 18-month period was used as the base period since although there was bound to be some duplication between editions coverage would be more complete. Entries are grouped by country. Each country listing includes assistance from multilateral organizations such as the UN Population Fund and the World Health Organization assistance from non-governmental organizations demographic facts and population policies. The basic source of demographic data for individual countries is the WORLD POPULATION PROSPECTS: 1988 REVISION. The basic source of information for the section on governments views on population is the UN Population Division and its publication WORLD POPULATION POLICIES. The dollar value of projects or total country programs is given where such figures are available.
