Workshop on CountryData – Building better dissemination systems for national development indicators

Phnom Penh, Cambodia, 21 - 25 April 2014


The workshop "CountryData: Building better dissemination systems for national development indicators," organized by UNSD, will take place from 21 - 25 April in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. This workshop is the fourth in a series of international workshops planned by the UNSD-DFID Project on “Improving the collation, availability and dissemination of national development indicators, including MDGs”. The series of workshops has served to build capacity around implementing the Statistical Data and Metadata eXchange (SDMX) dissemination model promoted by the project. The fourth workshop will, in particular, look at complex issues and advanced topics in SDMX mapping and exchange. It will also focus on metadata and its use in discrepancy analysis, with a long term view to reducing discrepancies between national and international development data. The training will be led by UNSD and will bring together statistical and IT project focal points from the 11 countries participating in the project.
