  1. e-Frame EU FP7 Project Final Conference Amsterdam, 10-11 February 2014 Overview of e-Frame outcomes Marina Signore e-Frame Project Coordinator Director of Research, Istat Donatella Fazio e-Frame Network Coordinator Senior Statistician, Istat

  2. e-Frame - European Framework for Measuring Progress • Coordination and support actions project • Duration from1 January 2012 – 30 June 2014 • Consortium of 19 partners • Co-chaired by Istat and Statistics Netherlands • aims at contributing to empower the European debate on “GDP and beyond” taking a broad approach on the theme and looking together at the social, economic, environmental dimensions in measuring human well-being and societal progress at different levels (e.g. global, national, and local) • e-Frame responds to the requests and needs of the EC to streamline on-going activities and results on “GDP and beyond” and to propose the way forward by stocktaking existing results; fostering EU networking; collecting and disseminating best practices and recommendations

  3. e-Frame outcomes • Organisation of 9 Thematic Workshopsand aSummer School • Preparation of Stocktaking reports on subject areas and specific topics including Guidelines and Recommendations • Creation of the European Network on Wikiprogress.org hosted by OECD (alongsidethe Regional Networks of Africa and Latin America) • e-Frame Initial Conference and European position at the 4th OECD World Forum. Implementation of the ESSC Sponsorship’s recommendations • e-Frame Final Conference presentation of project outputs; feedbacks for fine-tuning; sharing experiences and dialogue outside the project • Preparation of Policy Documents • Convergence report • Handbook of policy use • Roadmap for future research needs Fostering European Position Contributing to the future EU agenda

  4. Proposing the way forward Research areas for better statistics on “GDP and beyond” conceptualandmethodologicalaspects (subject areas, indicators, measurements,…) the implementation of the tools tocollect, produce, disseminate and share data the communication aspects e-Frame Roadmap for future research needs

  5. The Roadmap for future research needs ROADMAP 2nd Tentative June 2013 • Research needs and information gaps identified by e-Frame activities (stocktaking reports, workshops discussions, AB advices..) • Areas to be further developed in order to empower the development, the understanding, dissemination and use of statistics on well-being and sustainable development • Proposing topics for future research projects in the context of Horizon 2020 as well as future EU projects according to ESS needs • topics concerning official statistics • topics related to a looking forward perspective • topics related to the usage of non official data • topics concerning communication side

  6. A. Measurements issues in official statistics • The European Statistical System is the main producer of reliable statistical information • EU statistics on well-being and sustainable development are delivered by the ESS in accordance with quality frameworkprinciples (Code of Practice) and with goals and timetable set by the recommendations of the Sponsorship Group. Result of e-Frame Initial Conference: Well-being agenda is well established at EU level.

  7. e-Frame Report on NSIs initiatives A. Measurements issues in official statistics e-Frame Report on Subjective well-being Continue or further develop • implementing subjectiveindicators e-Frame Report on Measuring Progress at the local level • constructing indicators at different levels: local, national, global e-Frame Report on New Measures of International trade • disaggregating at the right dimension (target groups) • harmonizing concepts, standards and definitions (metadata) • improving timeliness • developing indicators of sustainability e-Frame Report on macroeconomic indicators e-Frame Report on Social Monitoring and Reporting in Europe e-Frame Summer School EMOS • training at University level QuoLexity Master

  8. B. Issues related to a looking forward perspective • What do policy makers and advisors to policy makers still need? • What models for supporting policies (e.g. trade-offs between dimensions, simulate the effects of doing and not-doing, ex-ante and ex-post evaluation) are needed? EU position at the 4th OECD World Forum • e-Frame Handbook supports policy makers in • setting coherent policy targets • putting in place the right policy instruments to achieve these targets

  9. C. Issues on the usage of non official data • How can we enhance statistical information by exploiting new non official data sources? • How can we foster the integration/complementarity of official and non official statistics? • How can non official data contribute to near real-time information? Exploiting Web2.0 opportunities and tools

  10. C. Issues on the usage of non official data • Need to develop technologies for the use of big data and open data in official statistical production • Need to exploit crowd sourced locally generated data • Need to bridge top-down and bottom-up approaches for the construction of statistics beyond GDP • Need to evaluate the role for non-official data in a cost-benefit perspective • Need to validate the quality of non-official data • Need to “label” thenon official data BIG DATA Conference 31 March – 1 April 2014 Rome www.cros-portal.eu e-Frame Guidelines for stakeholders inclusion

  11. D. Issues on the communication side (1/2) • Need to foster the culture on the measurement of well being (target campaigns for diverse stakeholders) • Need to find a common language among different disciplines • Need to educate the opinion leaders on statistics beyond GDP(Data Journalism School) • Need to inform and train thebusiness worldand educate themarketto read new measurements of progress and well-being as a chance to catch

  12. D. Issues on the communication side (2/2) • Need to facilitate the communication to policy makers • Need to find a wording for policy makers • Need to develop visualization tools to improve the use of statistics and indicators • Need to foster the involvement of society at large in statistics beyond GDP using the opportunities given by the Web2.0 platforms e-Frame Handbook e-Frame ICT Catalogue new FP7 Web-COSI project

  13. Concluding The roadmap identifies a number of “key issues” to be addressed in future research agendas at a European level in order to consolidatethe availability and the use of indicators on well-being, progress and sustainable development As available resources are limited, it is vital to join efforts and to coordinate research activities at a European level Nevertheless, it would be recommended, as an initial step, to find a large consensus on setting priorities with regard to the above mentioned needs and to schedule the future actions in the light of the objectives of Horizon 2020 Multi stakeholders partnershipsbetween NSIs, the academia and other relevant actors in the well-being debate is the way to follow to contribute to a large extent to reach faster and sounder results
