The awareness session featured a presentation on the Household Income and Expenditure Survey, in which attendees learned about the iGA's long-standing experience in survey administration, survey objectives, and how they contribute to improving citizens' and residents' quality of life. The iGA explained the mechanism for collecting and analyzing data gathered through electronic forms. This contributes to guiding policy and decision-making, and consequently developing government plans and programs across economic, social, and environmental sectors. Additionally, the iGA emphasized the importance of active participation in this national project, which benefits both citizens and residents. The session was attended by teams from the iGA Communication and Marketing, and Statistics & Population Directorates, along with the Indian Club management and members.

The Household Income and Expenditure Survey engages approximately 6,000 randomly selected families from all municipalities in Bahrain, aiming to gather accurate data for analyzing the economic situation in the country. To facilitate convenient scheduling and provide assistance, the iGA has assembled a team of 35 field researchers who were meticulously chosen according to specific criteria. The researchers will visit participating households after contacting them via the dedicated call center number, 17878070. Collected data will be published in aggregates, ensuring the highest levels of privacy and confidentiality.
