Dissemination
Much more than SDGs reporting, if we don't look below the surface and reflect on how a national level statistical network works, then we cannot build National Data Backbones and will miss the boat!

4. SDGs NSO Dissemination
NSO can orchestrate the information flows within the national network, acting as the experts to guide and enforce standards and building a shared knowledge.

5. Our conviction and guiding principles
Component-based
following international standards CSPA, SDMX, GSIM, GSBPM.
Community driven
by the SIS-CC a strong well-established community continually investing in product development 4
Open-source
enabling to be used by a wider set of users for free.
Full data lifecycle
support from collection, processing, through to dissemination

GSBPM provides the conceptual framework for Full Data Lifecycle.
In the context of a NDB, GSBPM defines the 'data aggregator' use case.

SDMX facilitates for a standardised full data lifecycle, and guides data modelling to ensure a coherent output suitable for consumption by data portals and visualisations.

11. Standards driven can sometimes contradict user-centric design!

12. Gaps in Standards
SDMX was developed as an data exchange protocol, and is being used for much more exposing it's constraints.
Sparse dataset!
Performance issues!

13. Standards need to evolve!

SDMX has and continues to evolve into a software architecture protocol with an increased format offering.

15. New Standards?
A need for a standard to exchange at technical level. For example, Reusable Components for the Web.

20. SDGs NSO Dissemination
Ministries will continue to report to their related IO or exchange with other national entities - it's not a hub and bespoke, rather it's open, transparent and structured - orchestrated by the NSO.
