  • 27 November to 1 December 2017

UNSD organized a sub-regional workshop entitled "Workshop on Environment Statistics in support of the implementation of the Framework for the Development of Environment Statistics (FDES 2013) for the Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS) region", in collaboration with the African Development Bank. It took place in Libreville, Gabon from 27 November to 1 December 2017, with on-ground support provided by the ECCAS Secretariat and the Government of Gabon.

During the workshop, the participants were introduced to and discussed the latest developments in environment statistics, including the FDES 2013, the Environment Statistics Self-Assessment Tool (ESSAT), climate change statistics, and other tools like the Indicator Reporting Information System (IRIS) of UN Environment. They also learnt how to make a diagnostic of their environment statistics with the ESSAT. Finally, the workshop provided countries with guidance in launching an environment statistics programme by presenting best practices, having more advanced countries from the region talking about their experience, and developing a regional programme of environment statistics supported by the ECCAS Secretariat.
