Recommendations • Send an experts for verification where the survey was conducted by other Partners, Or • Develop a standard format to be followed by all Partners • Need for a workshop which should consist of all subject matter specialists (including a representative from Training Institutions – Demographers) together with the International Agencies

  4. Recommendations • The respective countries need to stick to agreed country figures which have been monitored over time. If there is any imputation, the respective country should be contacted. • There is a need of change in method for the International Agencies, instead of extracting data to enhancing capacity of the countries. All survey should be owned by the countries regardless of who sponsored it • Consider using the ECA in case of resistance

  7. 2. ENVIRONMENT INDICATORS • NSOs should know where to send the data and maintain the release calendar • Metadata to be developed for all users and this should be done in collaboration with the International agencies • To work together with international Agencies and countries on definitions • Reconcile Population Census Principles and recommendations with the MDG indicators • Strengthen the coordination function in the NSOs

  8. 3. Poverty Indicators • The data bank for the Bank is growing, the Bank need to have a system which will enable them to participate in meetings like this held in the regions • Where the WB changes the figure for the respective country, there is a need of communicating with the country for verification • NSOs are to establish a Focal Point in this respect

  9. Poverty cont’d • Local Poverty line is to be published in addition to the indicator of $ 1 a day for comparison and to avoid the misconceptions. • Create more awareness to the public on the meaning of the indicator of $ 1 a day to eliminate the existing misconceptions.
