Pakistan Demographic Survey 2020

Pakistan Demographic Survey (PDS) 2020 – Interactive Dashboard

Gallup Pakistan Digital Analytics is proud to present the Pakistan Demographic Survey (PDS) 2020 Interactive Dashboard, a powerful tool designed to democratize access to Pakistan’s vital statistics. By transforming complex microdata from the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS) into dynamic visualizations, this dashboard provides an in-depth look at the demographic pulse of the nation.

About the Survey

The Pakistan Demographic Survey (PDS) is a nationwide exercise conducted to collect reliable data on vital events—specifically births, deaths, and population growth—during the period between national censuses. It serves as a critical resource for understanding the country’s demographic transition, health infrastructure usage, and fertility patterns.

Key Features of the Dashboard

• 📈 National Vital Rates at a Glance: Instantly access critical Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) including the Crude Birth Rate (CBR), Crude Death Rate (CDR), Natural Growth Rate, Total Fertility Rate (TFR), and Life Expectancy.

• 👥 Advanced Demographic Filters: Go beyond the basics with our integrated demographic roster. Users can slice and dice the data by Age, Gender, Marital Status, Education Level, and Literacy, allowing for granular analysis of specific population segments.

• 🗺️ Geographic & Regional Analysis: Visualize the distribution of vital events across Pakistan’s provinces—Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, ICT, Gilgit-Baltistan, and Azad Kashmir—through interactive Treemaps and region-specific breakdowns.

• 🏥 Health & Social Insights: Explore key social indicators affecting the population, including:

  • Maternal Health: Trends in Place of Delivery (Home vs. Hospital) and Birth Assistance (Doctor vs. Midwife/TBA).

  • Fertility Patterns: Detailed Age-Specific Fertility Rates (ASFR) curves.

  • Household Dynamics: Comparisons of household sizes in Urban vs. Rural settings.

• ⚔️ Custom Cross-Tabulation: Empowering researchers to perform their own queries. The dashboard allows users to cross-reference any two variables (e.g., Education Level vs. Age at Marriage) to uncover hidden correlations and trends.

Who Is This For?

This dashboard is an essential resource for policymakers, public health officials, academic researchers, and students. It eliminates the need for complex statistical software, putting the power of national demographic data directly into your hands for evidence-based decision-making.
