This workshop will provide hands-on practical training to
participants in using technologies for data exchange and
dissemination with the international level; specifically with
CountryData (data.un.org/countryData) for the dissemination of
national development indicators. In the workshop, Statistical
Data and Metadata eXchange (SDMX) is used as the preferred
standard for allowing National Statistical Offices (NSOs) to
automate and standardize data and metadata exchange so that
data are more timely and can be updated easily. A focus of the
workshop is the process of mapping and exchanging indicators
with SDMX through the features added to DevInfo 7 (devinfo.org)
as well as a demonstration of more advanced software like
SDMX-RI developed by EuroStat.
This workshop builds on previous workshops conducted in the
region and internationally in the area of national development
indicators and incorporates the third in a series of four
international workshops planned as part of the UNSD-DFID
Project on “Improving the collation, availability and
dissemination of national development indicators, including
MDGs”.
