Proposed programme plan for 2025 under subprogramme 4, Data and statistics

Abstract

The objective of subprogramme 4, Data and statistics, is to strengthen the production, dissemination and use of credible data, statistics and geospatial information at the national, regional and global levels for evidence -based policymaking and decision-making. To contribute to the objective of the subprogramme, the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) will support African national statistical systems in transforming their data governance and management methods by digitalizing the collection, compilation and dissemination of data for statistical purposes, including censuses and civil registration systems, and provide technical assistance and training in the design and implementation of national strategies for the development of statistics and national spatial data infrastructure with related integrated geospatial information frameworks.
