Manado (ANTARA) \u2013 Bonivasius Prasetya Ichtiarto, Deputy for\nPopulation Control at the Ministry of Population and Family\nDevelopment\/BKKBN, said stronger population development requires\naccurate, integrated and easily accessible data, including at village\nand urban ward level.<\/p>\n
\u201cComplete and relevant data are an important basis for understanding\nlocal conditions and identifying community needs,\u201d Bonivasius said on\nFriday during a visit to the Kawangunan Quality Family Village in\nPangolombian urban ward, Tomohon.<\/p>\n
Accurate, integrated and accessible data are also essential for\ndrawing up population development programmes that suit the\ncharacteristics of each region.<\/p>\n
Bonivasius also encouraged the digitalisation of population data\nmanagement at Quality Family Villages.<\/p>\n
He said digitalising the data would support the stronger role of\nQuality Family Villages as sites for integrating family and population\ndevelopment programmes, as well as implementing the Population\nDevelopment Roadmap (PJPK).<\/p>\n
\u201cWith better data management and cross-sector collaboration, Quality\nFamily Villages are expected to support more targeted development\nplanning while optimising the potential of the demographic dividend for\npeople\u2019s welfare,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
During the visit, the deputy reviewed population data covering\nvarious key development indicators at urban ward level.<\/p>\n
