The International Household Survey Network (IHSN) contracted IPUMS International for generating DDI and Dublin Core-compliant metadata related to population and housing census datasets from developing countries. The objective was to provide countries with detailed metadata in a format compatible with the DDI standard used by most of these countries, with a view to guarantee the preservation of the data and metadata, and the publishing of metadata.\n\nThe intellectual rights (including copyright) for the data and metadata in IPUMS are retained by the countries under a Memorandum of Understanding with the contributing countries. IPUMS-International has distribution rights to the metadata and data. The XML documents generated by this process are viewed as a distribution of the metadata.\n \nFields edited by the World Bank are: DDI ID and study ID to match World Bank study naming convention, as well as DDI Document Version and Version Description to reflect changes included in version 6.4.\n\nPrevious version documented in the World Bank Microdata Library:\n- v6.3 (August 2014)"}},"study_desc":{"title_statement":{"idno":"NPL_2001_PHC_v01_M_v02_A_IPUMS","title":"National Population Census 2001 - IPUMS Subset","alt_title":"PHC 2001 (IPUMS Harmonized Subset)"},"authoring_entity":[{"name":"Central Bureau of Statistics","affiliation":""},{"name":"Minnesota Population Center","affiliation":"University of Minnesota"}],"production_statement":{"copyright":"(c) Copyright 2001, Central Bureau of Statistics and Minnesota Population Center"},"distribution_statement":{"contact":[{"name":"Central Bureau of Statistics","affiliation":"","email":"","uri":""}]},"series_statement":{"series_name":"Population and Housing Census [hh\/popcen]"},"version_statement":{"version":"Version 6.4.

The details of the confidentiality protections vary across countries, but in all cases, names and detailed geographic information are suppressed and top-codes are imposed on variables such as income that might identify specific persons. In addition, IPUMS-International uses a variety of technical procedures to enhance confidentiality protection. These include the following:\n\n(1) Swapping an undisclosed fraction of records from one administrative district to another to make positive identification of individuals impossible.\n\n(2) Randomizing the placement of households within districts to disguise the order in which individuals were enumerated or the data processed.\n\n(3) Aggregating codes of sensitive characteristics (e.g., grouping together very small ethnic categories)\n\n(4) Top- and bottom-coding continuous variables to prevent identification of extreme cases.\n\nThe safety record for public-use census microdata is apparently perfect. In almost four decades of use, there has not been a single verified breach of statistical confidentiality. The measures implemented by the IPUMS-International are designed to extend this record.","required":"yes","form_no":"","uri":""}],"contact":[{"name":"IPUMS International","affiliation":"Minnesota Population Center","email":"","uri":"http:\/\/international.ipums.org"}],"cit_req":"Minnesota Population Center.
