  1. Key Messages From Day 1

  2. The Challenge • Sense of urgency • Business as usual will not work • We have an opportunity, but also a threat • We need to agree on the problems • And develop a concrete action plan, with alternatives, a timetable, and costs

  3. Demands for Statistics • MDGs, PRSPs, IDA • Balance these pressures and pool resources • More clearly articulate international demands • Meet need for disaggregated data • More attention to coordination of systems at national level • Joint assessment of gaps and master plans • Include users in all stages

  4. The International System • Agreement on main issues and problem areas • Limited resources to respond • Clarify and improve data “accountability” and quality assessment e.g. WHO model • Better coordination of international household survey program e.g. shared household survey inventory • Opportunities: PARIS21 Task Team; existing UN processes; UN Statistical Commission

  5. Country Capacity • Take a holistic rather than a sectoral approach • Use Statistical Master Plans • Quick wins: creation of central statistical databases, “datashops”, better accessibility to datasets • Improve donor coordination at national level • Build culture and capacity to analyze data • Work to household survey sustainability e.g. continuous surveys, integrated plans • Opportunity: PARIS21 SCB indicators
