This opening statement delivered by K.Y. Amoako, Executive Secretary, Economic Commission for Africa at the First Forum on African Statistical Development (FASDEV). Mr. Amoako, on his remarks highlighted that, ECA has recently taken important steps to revitalize its statistics function in recognition of the challenges facing regional and national statistical systems. The increased global need for a broader range of statistical information for monitoring progress in the implementation of the Millennium Development Goals and regional development initiatives such as the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD), has clearly increased the urgency of this work. This Forum can now make an effective contribution by charting the way forward in critical areas. As a key input to this task, ECA has drafted a strategic framework document- that aims to serve as a road map for statistical development in Africa.
