Organizer(s): IDB UNSD

Description: This session of the World Data Forum focuses on the modernization of statistical legislation in different regions of the world (Latin America and the Caribbean, Africa, Asia) and the tools adopted by countries to reduce gaps in their legal frameworks. These gaps are assessed on the basis of the United Nations Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics (UN-FPOS) and the guidelines derived from them. The gaps analysis also allows to have a qualitative approach about compliance with SDG indicator Nr. 17.18.2 ("Number of countries that have national statistical legislation that complies with UN-FPOS") and Objective 2.1 (“Modernize governance and institutional frameworks to allow NSS to meet the demands and opportunities of constantly evolving data ecosystems”) of Cape Town Global Action Plan for Sustainable Development Data. The objective of the session is, first, to make visible these gaps, together with learning about best practices adopted by countries to reduce them. Regarding the latter, particular interest lies in the strategic interactions in the public-private sphere and with civil society organizations to promote an improvement of the statistical regulatory framework, resulting in a greater availability of quality data. It is also important to discuss how international cooperation can promote a faster pace for these improvements.

Target Audience: National statistical offices, government officials that deal with official statistics production and/or dissemination, policy makers, employees from International Organizations that deal with statistical capacity building, researchers
