Regional Workshop on Measuring Progress of Societies What Capacity Building do we need to measure Progress? Sanaa – Yemen , April 19, 2007 (Thierry Paccoud – Project Director – MEDSTAT II Lot 2
Outline of the presentation • MEDSTAT II in brief • Foundations • Objectives • Principles for intervention • Organization • Present status • Capacity strengthening • Human capacities • Technical capacities • Institutional capacities • MEDSTAT II contributions for capacity strengthening
MEDSTAT II in brief • Foundations • Objectives • Principles for intervention • Organization • Present status
Strong political foundations Policy and strategic framework of the EU-MED relations Barcelona initiative ENP Bilateral agreements with EC Common history with the EU member states
Strong tehnical foundations Achievement from MEDSTAT I Methodologies Production of statistics Publications
Objectives of MEDSTAT II Strengthening of the statistical systems Production of better Statistics Visibility of the statistical work and products
Principles for implementing the project A country-tailored implementation process. A focus on production, dissemination and final use of statistics. A deep involvement of the NSSs of the MED countries. A more demand-driven approach. Capacity strengthening (ownership and durability).
A complex project • 10 partner countries • 12 sectors of interventions • 16 LTE, Approximately 3400 days of STE • Extensive scope for the TA (Missions, Events..) • Complex institutional framework (DC, TF, WG)
Organisation Lot 3 Equipment Consortium: Agmin • Lot 1 • Horizontal activities • IT • Training • Logistics • Consortium: GTZ(+Sogeti), Ariane II Groupe Transiciel (L), EIPA (NL), Meteksan Sistem A.S. (TQ), IBF (B), CNAM (FR), Statistics Lithuania (LT), Ministère de l’Economie (L) • Lot 2 • Thematic activities • Trans, Tour, En, Env, NA, Ext. trade, Agr, Soc, Migr • Consortium: ADETEF, INSEE (FR), INE (ES), INE (PT), ONS (UK), GUS (PL), KSH (HU), Plan Bleu (FR), Landsis (LU)
The work program Inception phase Launching Phase Implementation Phase Completion Phase
Activities planned Delivery of the Equipment • Activity 1: • Mission orientation reports • Road Maps Activity 2: Data collection and exchange Activity 3: Transfer of Know how Activity 4: Harmonization Activity 5: Programming and reorientation Activity 6: Synergies Activity 7: Dissemination of statistics Activity 8: Users’ needs
Where do we stand today? Between the orientation and the implementation phases • Reports =} Directors’ Committee • Task forces =} Road maps

Capacity building 2. Technical capacities 1. Human capacities 3. Institutional capacities
Human capacities Individual capacity Articulation of knowledge and know-how Collective memory/consistency 1. Human capacities
Individual capacity • General training on statistics methods and tools • Recycling and re-training • Valorization Articulation of knowledge and know-how Collective memory/consistency
Individual capacity Articulation of knowledge and know-how • Team/group work, • Vertical integration of activities • Horizontal integration of activities • Training capacities Collective memory/consistency
Individual capacity Articulation of knowledge and know-how Collective memory/consistency • Inside the NSI • Inside the NSS • Outside the NSS
Technical capacities Norms and standards – Know-why Tools – Know-what Practices – Know-how Network – Know-who and know-where 2. Technical capacities
Norms and standards – Know-why • Methodologies • Systems • Classifications Tools – Know-what Practices – Know-how Network – Know-who and know-where
Norms and standards – Know-why Tools – Know-what • Data collection • Data processing • Data production • Data analysis • Data dissemination Practices – Know-how Network – Know-who and know-where
Norms and standards – Know-why Tools – Know-what Practices – Know-how • Understanding • Mastering (reproduction) • Adapting and improving Network – Know-who and know-where
Norms and standards – Know-why Tools – Know-what Practices – Know-how Network – Know-who and know-where • Sector versus global level • National, regional and international
Institutional capacities Within the NSI Between the NSI and its partners (production) Relation with the users National Statistical System (NSS) Community of statisticians
Within the NSI • Organization and structure • Planning and programming • Archiving • Synergies and integration between/of activities Between the NSI and its partners (production) Relation with the users National Statistical System (NSS) Community of statisticians
Within the NSI Between the NSI and its partners (production) • Exchange of information • Coordination of activities • Joint products (production, dissemination) Relation with the users National Statistical System (NSS) Community of statisticians
Within the NSI Between the NSI and its partners (production) Relation with the users • Information • Communication • Perception of user’s needs • Feed-back to the users National Statistical System (NSS) Community of statisticians
Within the NSI Between the NSI and its partners (production) Relation with the users National Statistical System (NSS) • Strategy (NSSD) • Organisation (statistical Council) • Programming (arbitrage) Community of statisticians
Within the NSI Between the NSI and its partners (production) Relation with the users National Statistical System (NSS) Community of statisticians • Quality • Transparency • Visibility • Accessibility
MEDSTAT II contributions for capacity strengthening • Equipment • Technical assistance (field missions, study visits, working groups…) • Training (workshops, training sessions, e-learning…) • Network of expertise • Visibility of and access to data (publications, common data-bank, web-site)
To conclude… (1) A regional project is only one possible perspective to contribute to capacity strengthening An articulation and synergies must be established with other levels: National and International
To conclude… (2) Main contribution of regional support projects to capacity building in statistics: • Exchange of experiences and practices among partners with similar problems • Economy of scale for the development of tailored solutions/tools • Peer pressure
To conclude… (3) Key contribution of a EU-funded regional project to capacity building in statistics: • Comprehensive and harmonized EU statistical system (methods and norms) • Strengthening of the EU-MED partnership and articulation with other themes/areas of co-operation • Long standing co-operation schemes with EU member states (bilateral)
