Census microdata, like the Public Use Microdata Samples in the USA and Samples of Anonymised Records in the UK, has made a substantial contribution to social science on an international basis. Census Microdata: findings and futures provided an opportunity to hear about and discuss research undertaken with census microdata internationally and consider the future role of census microdata.

The conference included presentations from international census offices such as the Australian Bureau of Statistics, Institut National de la Statistique et des Études Économiques and Statistics Canada.
