Maximizing the use and value of data for better decision makingOrganiser(s): Open Government Partnership (OGP)Land Portal FoundationOpen Contracting PartnershipOpen Data Watch (ODW)As the deadline for the Sustainable Development Goals and Agenda 2030 approaches, the need to monitor progress on the development goals could not be clearer, as is the need to assess the role of data in advancing toward the goals. To realize the value of data and data-related projects in achieving the SDGs, we need to take a closer look at the latest evidence on where countries stand regarding progress to date as well as highlight trends and opportunities for improvement. In this context, the Global Data Barometer is a multi-dimensional index that assesses countries around the world against a set of robust comparative metrics focused on data for public good, providing much needed insight into where and how data is being used to a

(TA1.06) Surveys and censuses in building a stronger statistical foundation to understand the true death toll of the pandemic

Innovation and partnerships for better and more inclusive dataOrganiser(s): New York University (NYU)United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD-DESA)Central Statistics Office (CSO-Ireland)World Health Organization (WHO)United Nations Population Division (UNPD-DESA).Understanding the true death toll of COVID-19 is important for policymaking at the global, national and local level. When the Technical Advisory Group on COVID-19 Mortality Assessment, established jointly by UN-DESA and WHO, was tasked with estimating national and global COVID-19 excess mortality, they found that only 38 per cent of countries had the required monthly mortality data from January 2020 to December 2021.  This reflects a serious flaw of the statistical foundation in most of the countries.While countries have been making great efforts to improve their civil registration and vital statistics system, immediate actions are needed to im

Therefore, it is essential that producers and users of data, especially policymakers, work more closely together. Users should engage in the data production process from the start, and policymakers need to increase their capacity for effective use of data as well as political commitment to prioritize data as a strategic decision-making asset. On the other hand, data producers s

Evidence generated by this type of evaluation can offer a rationale for i) redesigning, expanding or (dis)continuing policies/projects, ii) understanding how much each dollar invested returns as a benefit to communities/households/environment and iii) shifting conventional wisdom and reorienting interventions towards more effective approaches. However, to backstop rigorous impact evaluations, the availability of quality, accurate and frequent data is critical. While new technologie

(TA2.41) Beyond Income, Averages and Today: Redefining Human Development in the Anthropocene Era with People-Centered Metrics and Hyperlocal Data
Tracks:Data and statistical standardsDissemination platforms and visualisationPartnershipsTA2. Maximizing the use and value of data for better decision makingOrganiser(s): United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)The impact of humanity on the planet has given rise to a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene, where our greatest threat is ourselves. To progress human development in this epoch, we must go beyond traditional measurements such as income and instead adopt people-centered metrics that account for the impact of climate change on our health, well-being, and livelihoods. This means moving beyond averages, providing hyperlocal estimates of climate change impacts, and looking beyond today by considering projections to the end of the 21st century under different policy scenarios.In this interactive session, the panelists will demonstrate that designing a path to progress that respects the intertwined fate of people and the planet requires a new generation of measurements.
