Implementation of the International Comparison Program (ICP) in Western Asia

Development Objective

The overall development objective is to enhance the capacity of National Statistical Offices (NSOs) in Member Countries for the production of Purchasing Power Parities estimates. The project aims at ensuring the successful implementation and completion of the ICP activities in the Western Asia region, and further instituting the ICP as a permanent element in the regional and national statistical programs, as per the UNSC recommendation. These steps will, in turn, advance the statistical foundation for measuring sustainabl development and supporting evidence-based policymaking.
