Description: Better nationalregionaland global development policies underscored the need for resilient and trusted public data systems in evidence-based policymaking. Building back better from the pandemic and other crisesmany public statistical systems need to develop adequate capacities to cope with these new and rising data demands and coordinate strategically across the new data ecosystemFirstlydata producers need to coordinate efficiently to close data gaps at national level. Smart planningmonitoring and evaluationand service delivery measures require highly disaggregated data. Yetfor low and middle-income countrieslimited statistical capacity threaten response and future resilience. For instanceadministrative data systems including sectoral and local data are often inefficiently coordinated. Secondlyentering a decade of actiongovernments need to align globalregional and national policy objectives. This in turnrequires an in-depth mapping of data availability vis-à-vis data requirements. The heightened demand for data to monitor progress and inform policy and development choices necessitate a comprehensive data assessment and mapping at national levelwhich support better alignment of the national strategy for the development of statistics (NSDS) to data demand.Thirdlystatistical offices need to improve coordination with national and international partners to attract funding efficiently. Prioritisation and increased coordination of statistical activitiesfor instance through a national strategy for the development of statisticscan be conducive to attract more domestic funding as well as external resources. At the same timethere is ample scope to strengthen coordination between and among development cooperation partners and partner countries and promote south-south cooperation to make the status quo of funding for statistics more cost-efficient. The Partnership in Statistics for Development in the 21st Century (PARIS21) in collaboration with the Statistical Institute for Asia and the Pacific (SIAP) developed a unique training course for NSSNSO leaders and national planning senior managers to improve strategic planning for data and statistics developmentusing innovative tools and methods. The course will give a thorough introduction to the NSDS design process. In additionthis course will feature special topics on gender statisticsclimate change datachildren data as well as communications around the NSDS.
