Data revolution for what purpose?
- More data?- Better policies?- Better lives?
WANTED: a Data Revolution
“A true data revolution would draw on existing and
new sources of data to fully integrate statistics into
decision making, promote open access to, and use
of, data and ensure increased support for
statistical systems.”
A call to action from the highest level

Call for data revolution comes from Busan Action Plan on Statistics, that seeks to :
Fully integrate statistics in decision making
Promote open access to and use of data
Increase resources for statistical systems

Sound familiar?
National ownership, benefit the people, build on
what we have.
Reduces the risk of “crowding out / in” ;
unsustainable financing.
Better data, better policies?
Innovations not only in data but also in capacity
building e.g. skill development.
(16
Strengthening national capacity is a key element of any data revolution
How to ensure strengthening a balance
between horizontal and vertical approaches?
How to bear in mind the reality on the ground in
many poor, (fragile) developing countries?
How to reach out beyond our circles to reach
the broader policy, advocacy communities?
