The Busan Action Plan for Statistics: An Update on the Implementation

The Busan Action Plan for Statistics (BAPS), endorsed at the Busan HLF4 and UNSC meetings, focuses on implementing five key actions to enhance statistical integration in decision-making, promote open data access, and increase resource bases for statistical initiatives. Emphasizing collective effort and political leadership, BAPS aims to align its activities with national strategy documents and improve data accessibility, training, and communication. Key initiatives include gender statistics, agricultural data, and geospatial management, with ongoing monitoring and governance support through PARIS21.

  1. The Busan Action Plan for Statistics: An Update on the Implementation Shaida Badiee, Director, Development Economics Data Group, World Bank Committee for the Coordination of Statistical Activities Frankfurt, September 17 – 19, 2012

  2. Focus is now on implementation • BAPS endorsed at the Busan HLF4 (December, 2011) and the UNSC (March, 2012) • BAPS has five actions to support three objectives: • Integrate Statistics into decision-making • Promote open access • Increase resource base • Each action encompasses a range of possible activities at the national, regional, & global level. • Implementation activities could be “vertical” or “horizontal”

  3. BAPS Implementation principles • Requires collective effort & political leadership • Should be country led • Uses existing partnerships & agencies • Results will be monitored • Implementation roadmap is flexible and responsive, based on broad consultation

  4. Priorities from consultations • Sample of developing countries: align activities through the NSDS, need stable funding, improve data accessibility, training, & communication with users • UNSC: improve accessibility of statistics, gender statistics, agricultural statistics, and consider special needs of fragile and small states • Regional Entities: advocate use of stats in decision-making, consolidate training activities, improve NSDSs • Users: Focus on results, improve M&E systems, more accessible and better sub-national and micro data.

  5. Implementation steps underway • Task team on BAPS implementation • Re-focusing of NSDSs • Supporting countries with open data initiatives • Gender Statistics (“EDGE”) • Agriculture Statistics (Implementing the Global Strategy) • Geospatial information management • Innovative programs to gather high frequency data on household welfare • ECASTAT – a new partnership for regional statistical capacity building in Europe and CIS countries • Many IFIs re-focusing their WP and strategic approaches

  6. Governance • PARIS21 governance arrangements revised • PARIS21 to act as BAPS secretariat • Task Team to help in the short term • PARIS21 EC and Board to review shifts in BAPS priorities and assess implementation progress • Report progress as well as receive support from post-Busan Global Partnership for Effective Development Co-operation (WP/EFF) and the UNSC

  7. Financing requirements and instruments • Key initiatives have sound financing (Agriculture and Gender) • Other initiatives not expensive (NSDS updating, Open Data initiatives in countries, pilot high-frequency stats, PARIS21 strengthening) • RDBs to rely on current financing instruments • World Bank is re-purposing TFs

  8. Monitoring • Monitoring aided by BAPS log frame and indicators for specific implementation initiatives • Monitoring of the Busan Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation • It has been suggested to include an indicator on statistics (such as the SCI) • Work still in progress, but not likely that statistics will be a stand alone progress indicator
