  1. How can PARIS21 help? Presentation by PARIS21 Secretariat

  2. PARIS21 Secretariat works through: NSDS support Advocacy: developing and deploying messages and materials internationally and in countries Building and maintaining effective communications and cooperation, including strengthening in-country partnerships Reporting on NSDS progress and donor support Developing and sharing knowledge: guidelines, advice, web site, knowledge base Satellite programmes: ADP, IHSN

  3. 1. NSDS support Shift support from NSDS design to NSDS implementation Intensify country-level work across range of PARIS21 activities: advocacy, partnership building events, meetings, etc. Facilitate funding requests, e.g. to TFSCB/SRF Coherence, synergy with other programmes Peer reviews and NSDS Essentials check list Regionally based PARIS21 consultants

  4. 2. Advocacy – key messages Better use of better national statistics leads to better policies, better aid effectiveness and better development outcomes Good statistics improve transparency and accountability of Governments decisions Investment in statistics will pay for itself many times over by improving resource allocation Statistics are needed for “upstream” policy development; as well as for “downstream” processes such as monitoring and evaluation

  5. Advocacy works! Increased recognition among policy makers of value of statistics, e.g., Hanoi MfDR (2007) Greater awareness among statisticians of new data challenges More strategic plans being produced and ready for implementation “Scaling Up” efforts to help countries fund their statistical capacity

  6. Advocacy: some recent examples “Counting Down Poverty” booklet “Why does country X need good statistics?” pamphlets NSDS synthesis documents

  7. Statistical Advocacy Resource Toolkit (START) Advocacy most relevant at country level Help statisticians to advocate to policy makers and funders, including donor country offices Make best use of available materials Tailored materials National events Work with the wider partnership Also advocacy to donor countries and institutions

  8. Specific NSDS and advocacy support in Caribbean Suriname: NSDS launch; 9 October. Barbados: advocacy seminar during Statistics Week; 13 October. Jamaica: no details and date not confirmed.

  9. 3. Strengthening partnerships Strengthening in-country partnerships, through e.g. producer-user-donor meetings, NSDS launch events Providing countries with tools to improve partnerships, e.g. advice on country meetings Building and maintaining cooperation with regional partners; and with other international networks, e.g. HMN Funding participation in international and PARIS21 meetings, e.g. P21 Consortium meeting planned for November 2009

  10. 4. Reporting on NSDS progress and donor support • Reporting on donor support for statistical capacity building (PRESS) • Reporting on progress and status of NSDS and PRS processes; successes, constraints, lessons learnt • Providing countries with tools to assist their own statistical reporting needs • Collation and sharing of information on countries and agencies

  11. 5. Studies and knowledge development Guidance on NSDS and statistical development : sharing existing information and new studies on: Statistics and M&E Factors of Success in Reforming a Developing Country National Statistical System: the Case of Tunisia Financing National Statistical Activities The Quality Approach in Designing an NSDS Reflection on how best can TA be provided to small island countries

  12. 6. Satellite programmes Accelerated Data Program (ADP) • Aims to make information available from existing surveys: facilitating access and assessment of quality International Household Survey Network (IHSN) • Aims to facilitate better use of existing data; and better quality of future surveys, through a survey catalogue, Microdata Management Toolkit, dissemination policy guidelines; anonymisation tools and guidelines; question bank; quality assessment framework

  13. In closing… Limited involvement so far of PARIS21 in the Caribbean compared with other regions, including Central America. But eagerness to expand collaboration. Your comments are invited on how we can best work together.
