Legislations in countries require data dissemination • Statistical capacity building
In conclusion.. • DDP is a data service • DDP is a solution for data access and dissemination • Since its release in Nov 2004 • Used in ICT, AFR, DECRG, LAC, ECA and DECPG for disseminating their data • QEDS was released in partnership with IMF • MDG tool for data monitoring • External demand -- in discussion with AfDB for implementation of DDP
