Preface
Since its inception, the PCBS has sought to build an official database of statistics
based on local needs and in accordance with standards that guarantee full
membership in the international statistical community. PCBS adopted a gradual
approach to realizing current Palestinian priorities. It has been able to accomplish
several statistical tasks by relying on primary sources, including censuses and
surveys. In addition, it has cooperated with public and private sector institutions in
using secondary sources, such as administrative records, to derive further statistical
data.
We are pleased to present the Twelfth Statistical Yearbook of Palestine 2011. This
report is part of our efforts to provide a continuous time series that make it possible
to study general trends in different fields through a comprehensive statistical
reference that covers most demographic, social, economic, and geographic fields.
This report provides official statistics on various aspects of life in the Palestinian
Territory, along with available statistics on Palestinians all over the world. This
Yearbook presents Palestinian demographic, social and economic status over three
sections in the first chapter.
The first section in chapter one discusses the conditions of Palestinians in those parts
of the Palestinian Territory that are still under military Israeli occupation. The
chapter covers social, economic, medical, educational, and cultural conditions, in
addition to other areas.
The second section in chapter one discusses the conditions of Palestinians in the
Palestinian Territory occupied in 1948, who live under full Israeli administration and
jurisdiction.
The third section in chapter one addresses the most prominent characteristics of
Palestinians in the Diaspora, particularly in the host countries of Palestinian
refugees: Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon.
The second chapter deals with the most important Concepts and Definitions used in
this Yearbook.
We hope that this Yearbook will bridge informational gaps as well as providing one
of the main basic references for Palestine official statistics. The information
provided by this Yearbook should enhance development and assist decision makers
in formulating decisions and plans based on informed and professional foundations.

Important Note
In the first chapter, statistical data were derived from PCBS

publications. Readers can, if necessary, refer to these publications.
In the second and the third chapters of this Yearbook, the
multiplicity and variety of sources, concepts and reference periods
complicate the effort to present statistical data in a complete and
consistent manner.
There are some minor differences between the value of some
variables and their aggregates in tables as a result of rounding
and calculations.
For greater detail for English readers about any topic in this
Yearbook, please refer to the tables in the Arabic section, which
are in both Arabic and English.
A set of special symbols were used in the tables of this book. The
