Brief Description
This Project is expected to contribute to improving the resilience and flexibility of national statistical systems to compile and communicate data and statistics to inform socioeconomic recovery and environmental considerations following the COVID-19 pandemic, documented by target countries, confirming the usage of innovative data sources, advanced data collection methods, modern technologies and contingency plans in the eventuality of future shocks.
Objective and Expected Outcomes
Objective
Improved the resilience and agility of NSS to meet Covid?19 data needs to recover better
Expected Outcome 1
Increased knowledge of beneficiary countries on their status and gaps in enhancing resilient and agile NSS and addressing current and emerging data needs across workstreams
Expected Outcome 2
Improved capability of target countries to enhance the statistical infrastructure, including modernization of governnace, data sources and collection methodology and processes across statistical domains.
Expected Outcome 3
Enhanced capability of target countries to produce quality, granular and timely statistics in specific data areas to measure and mitigate the impact of COVID-19 and eventually monitor sectoral recovery and safeguard policies, leaving no one behind.
