SESRTCIC is amoung those International Institutions!

The number of SESRTCIC website visitors is at a considerable

level (1000 people per day). It is highly desired that the data about Islamic Countries could be disseminated to the world through this website.

Organization of Islamic Countries (OIC) gave the task of collecting

and disseminating data to SESRTCIC.

Any one who is searching high quality data for some Islamic

Country should be sure that it is available at the Web Site of

SESRTCIC.

Cooperation of NSOs is needed severely to achive this outcome.

New Categories and Indicators

New Categories will be included to BASEIND

• Poverty (14 Indicators)• Environment (6 Indicators)• MDG Indicators• Gender

The number of indicators belonging to some of the existing categories will be increased. The total number of indicators will be around 300 which is quite a high number compared to the existing number of 186.

SESRTCIC is open to any suggestions of introduction of new categories or indicators.

A proper and reliable data provision system is required.

Methods of data collection will be improved through an ongoing project

of developing a computer programme. This project is carried out in cooperation with the NSO of Turkey. This programme will enable the data transfer from each NSO of the OIC member country to SESRTCIC.

Before this step SESRTCIC should be sure that the already existing data at the Center is correct and moreover the missing values should be filled as much as possible. For this cooperation of NSOs are severely required.

We sent the related existing data in our center to some of the OIC countries for this updating process and we will go on doing this for the others also.

If you can help us in this process, we will appreciate it very much.
