“We already consider it a success that Argentina has the possibility of self-answering, since citizens have the right to be recognized, but they also have a civic obligation to do so,” said Lavagna, after a meeting with the governor of Corrientes, Gustavo Valdés.
The presence of the head of the Indec in Corrientes was due to the decision to federally articulate the fieldwork involved in the 2022 Census, which has been in the digital stage since March 16 and on May 18, starting at 8, will be held in person throughout the country, simultaneously.

In that sense, the national official explained that his visit to Corrientes aims “to outline the latest details and coordination for what will be the data count in person.”
“This will help us to get to know each other again, to know how we are, what our deficiencies are and to recognize ourselves in our ethnic and cultural differences,” he added.
The meeting with Valdés and Lavagna was also attended by the coordinator of the 2022 Census, Santiago Tettamanti; the Corrientes Ministers of Finance, Marcelo Rivas Pisantini, of Coordination and Planning, Miguel Olivieri, and the Director of Statistics and Census of Corrientes, Francisco Bosco.
