Development Objective

Intermediate Objectives per component: 1. Regulatory and institutional frameworks are improved for national statistical agencies to be more effective 2. Management and human resources are in place to meet statistical demands of the public, especially of the policy makers 3. Main statistical agencies have developed/upgraded and put into operation their core statistical programs and disseminated the results 4.
