UNSC53 side event: From COVID-19 response to NSO resilience and preparedness

This side event will be an opportunity to see beyond the immediate COVID-19 crisis and to reflect on the insights gained through a series of global surveys of national statistical offices (NSOs) conducted over the last two years, including the recent Survey of NSOs on the Implementation of the Cape Town Global Action Plan for Sustainable Development Data (conducted by the World Bank, the United Nations Statistics Division and PARIS21), as well as four rounds of surveys of NSOs to monitor the evolving impacts of the pandemic on statistical operations (implemented by the World Bank and United Nations Statistics Division, in collaboration with the Regional Commissions of the United Nations).

By examining several key aspects of national statistical systems, including strategic priorities, legal frameworks, ITC readiness and resources, the surveys revealed the extent to which national statistical systems are resilient, fit for purpose, and ready for future challenges. They also provide valuable information on financing needs expressed by countries to implement CTGAP.

The session will consist of a presentation of highlights from the most recent survey followed by a panel discussion with representatives from NSO and a UN regional commission, who will examine how to better collect and share timely, actionable information on the capacity and financing needs of NSOs and other members of the national and international statistical systems, with the objective of being able to better monitor and strengthen the preparedness and resilience of national statistical systems.
