The estimated population is 14901286 (48.5% men and 51.5% women) with about 41.7% identifying as Indigenous and 54.69% of the population aged 24 years or younger [1]. Despite this potential 59.3% of the population lives in poverty earning less than Q.10218.00 (or US$ 132731) per year [2].

CONFIDENTIALITY REGIME In application of Article 114.1 of INTERPOL’s Rules on the Processing of Data (RPD) the General Secretariat is “responsible for determining authorization procedures or a system of security clearance at each data confidentiality level”. Member states which are not able or willing to assist INTERPOL in performing such a check should be aware that some INTERPOL information might not be made available to their nationals working at INTERPOL. In order to be able to access police information classified as “INTERPOL For official use only” or “INTERPOL RESTRICTED” the individual has to obtain “INTERPOL Restricted” security clearance. This clearance is granted after Basic security screening. For seconded or other officials assigned to work or assist at the General Secretariat by a member country in lieu of Basic security screening the respective NCB shall attest that the equivalent of the INTERPOL Basic security screening has been satisfactorily completed.
