Respond to the (many) global calls Many reporting frameworks: African Union 2063 CARICOM Regional Economic Indicators SADC Economic indicators ASEAN Economic indicators Andes Community Social Indicators Pacific Community Core Statistics “ Providers of development cooperation will minimize their use of additional frameworks, refraining from requesting the introduction of performance indicators that are not consistent with countries’ national development strategies. » Busan Action Plan for Statistics 2011

Statistical capacity and funding still low

Improve efficiency of data systems Questions from NSO “What are these new indicators which we need to produce, exactly?” “ Does anyone produce them already in our country, somehow?” “How good is our work plan / NSDS ?” “Who should do what? Who will pay?” Questions from Data planners “Can’t they reuse existing data?” “Can’t someone else pay the bill?” “Is this really important to measure?” Not specific to SDGs

ADAPT for SDGs Localization 2 ADAPT for SDGs Localization

Localization of SDGs HOW ADAPT HELPS Assess and visualize data gaps between supply and demand Assess and visualize mapping between data demands: maps sectors and subnational policies Promote the re-use of existing data Identify statistical capacity issues Check the validity of the plans to improve stat capacity, and help improve, and cost => Enables coordination and iterative planning Assess and visualise data gaps between supply and demand Demand: Digitalisation of policy log frames: demanded indicators Supply: Links to supply data inventories Assess and visualise mapping between data demands: maps sectors and subnational policies Promote the re-purpose / re-use of existing data Localised global indicators Identify missing required sources and orphans demanded indicators Reconcilation plans: NSDS, etc. Link up to other countries in global communities Iterative planning

Localization of SDGs How many SDGs indicators are applicable (and relevant) to my country? How many indicators are reflected in my National Policies indicators? How many indicators are available today? For which sectors? Who produce them? Who is supposed to do it? What is the availability prospect / feasibility for the close future? Check future plans for data sources Check current status of funding / capacity availability Which are the indicators requiring development? ! SDG localization critical to increase chances of national funding

ADAPT eases the burden of planning for reporting Iterative & Incremental Planning Countries are at the center of the process. Consultative tool: allows sharing and updating of information across stakeholders. Uses multiple relational databases. This is vital for iterative and incremental planning Iterative over time and level of expertise Incremental: division of labour (data supply/costing/QC) ADAPT maintains global and regional searchable indicator libraries

ADAPT for better SDG data planning 3 ADAPT for better SDG data planning Not the first concern . Which was: supply VS demand from NDP + other national policies = assessment part of NSDS.

Planning for SDGs reporting: logical steps STEP 1: Check SDGs data gaps as of today Applicable – Available = Requires Development STEP 2: Check capacity gaps behind data gaps (GSBPM + CD4.0) STEP 3: Check likelihood of data gaps for the future STEP 4: Prioritize, propose scenarios and cost STEP 5: Advocate, fund, implement, M&E NSDS guidelines : http://nsdsguidelines.paris21.org/node/236

ADAPT supports the e-NSDS ADAPT allows the NSO to move from a static NSDS process to a dynamic e-NSDS platform Dynamic plans that are mapped: global (CTGAP, national, subnational, sectoral, etc) Dynamic plans that are regularly monitored and reviewed. e-NSDS Define activities in strategy Assign to responsible implementer Input cost of activities Assign to GAMSO or GSBPM Monitor performance indicators

ADAPT helps put things together

4 Next steps

Areas requiring (joint) development Populate content and keep it up-to-date New functionalities: Import from data inventories Assess admin data quality Costing Budgeting Scenario planning and optimization

Working together to respond to TA needs Enormous country demand Approx. 15 NSOs worldwide use it Endorsed by UNSD as an SDG readiness tool UNDP in SDG localization Other partners : GPSDD, MCC, UN ESCAP, UN SIAP, WB TA plans for 2018
