17 | | -Statistical population modelling is a powerful tool for producing gridded population estimates to support census activities. [WorldPop](https://www.worldpop.org/) at the University of Southampton is a global leader in developing these methods and has partnered with the [United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA)](https://www.unfpa.org/) to provide support to national statistics offices in training and production of high-resolution gridded population estimates from existing data sources (e.g. household surveys, building footprints, administrative records, census projections). |

19 | | -This website provides a series of tutorials in **Bayesian statistics for population modelling** and hands-on experience to start developing the necessary skills. It includes example code and other resources designed to expedite the learning curve as much as possible. |
20 | | - |
21 | | -The key concepts that are covered in the tutorial series include: |
22 | | - |
23 | | -1. Introduction to software for Bayesian statistical modelling: R and Stan, |
24 | | - |
25 | | -2. Simple linear regression in a Bayesian context, |
26 | | - |
27 | | -3. Random effects to account for settlement type (e.g. urban/rural) and other types of stratification in survey data, |
28 | | - |
29 | | -4. Quantifying and mapping uncertainties in population estimates and |
30 | | - |
31 | | -5. Diagnostics to evaluate model performance (e.g. cross-validation). |
32 | | - |
33 | | -The material has been used during a remote workshop with the Brazilian Stats Office, Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE), in October 2021. |
