The United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) will organise a meeting for its focal points from seven (7) West African countries, whose country-profiles will be drafted during the biennium 2016-2017. This concerns: Benin, Burkina, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Mali, Sierra Leone and Togo. The holding of this meeting, which will bring together 18 Focal Points, is basically explained by the need for the ECA to possess regular and quality statistical data to understand the economic situation of West African countries and for relevant decision-making in order to undertake and expand the structural transformation of the economies of these countries. To implement this commitment, the ECA has decided for the coming years, to organize its statistical activities around the regular production of economic and social reports per country, known as Country Profiles.
