WorldPop's Andy Tatem and Jessica Espey report on the growing global crisis in #population data in The Conversation. Please share across your networks
"When people vanish from #data, they vanish from #policy. When certain groups are systematically undercounted – often #minorities, #rural communities or #poorer people – they become invisible to #policymakers. This translates directly into #political #underrepresentation and inadequate resource allocation."
