3 Introduction Challenges of African Statistics Systems Opportunities
Institutional weaknesses such as inadequate financing and use of statistics in policy making as well as poor management and institutional capacity within statistical bodies themselves; Organizational weaknesses such as poor quality and management of data, weakness in data analysis and poor dissemination and access to information produced. Opportunities SDGs Agenda 2063 The Imperative need for comparative data for the integration process and measurement of development Data revolution The emergence of new data sources, greater acknowledgment of the need to integrate geospatial and statistical information

4 Why SHaSA? Need to address all of the challenges face by the African Statistical Systems in a drive to support the African integration program alongside national, regional, continental, and international development agendas Need to provide users with quality harmonized statistical information in all areas of integration in order to foster better formulation and effective monitoring of Integration and development, according to the timelines of the different agendas. Statistics produced in Africa do not always meet user needs. Often they fail to be produced and disseminated in a timely manner. Moreover they sometimes neglect to take into consideration current and topical events, or to take on board the specificities of the African environment. So it is not unusual to find that their methodologies do not reflect African realities and that they are not always comparable between countries, etc.

5 What is SHaSA? Objective is to address all of ASS challenges in a drive to support the African integration program alongside national, regional, continental, and international development agendas Vision: "An efficient statistical system that generates reliable, harmonized and timely statistical information covering all dimensions of political, economic, social, environmental and cultural development and integration of Africa“ Expected outcomes: Adoption of common international norms adapted to African realities; Better coordination of development efforts and the sustainable production of a wide range of harmonized statistics in order to inform political decisions and measure progress made in the implementation of development agendas The strategy is structured on four strategic themes

6 Strategic themes and objectives of SHaSA II
SO1.1: To expand the statistical information base SO1.2: To transform existing statistics for comparability SO1.3: To harmonise standards and methods of statistical production ST1: To produce quality statistics for Africa SO2.1: To establish effective coordination and collaboration mechanisms SO2.2: To define statistical priorities for the implementation of integration and development agendas ST2: To Coordinate the Production of Quality Statistics for Africa SO3.1: To reform and enhance national statistical systems SO3.2: To reform and enhance regional and continental statistical systems SO3.3: To Develop sustainable statistical capacities SO3.4: To Establish an effective technological environment ST3: To develop sustainable institutional capacities of the African statistical system SO4.1: To drive evidence-based decisions through the use of statistics SO4.2: To improve the communication of statistical information ST4: To Promote a culture of quality policy and decision-making

11 Administrative date and Non-tradition data sources in SHaSA (Cont’d)
SO1.3: To transform existing statistics for comparability :  Apply agreed standards on administrative an non-traditional data SO3.1: To reform and enhance National Statistical Systems: adoption of statistical laws and regulatory frameworks in line with the African Charter on Statistics; development and implementation of NSDS; organization of peer reviews; establishment of adequate and sustainable funding for statistical activities, etc.  Appropriate legal framework to improve the use of administrative and non-traditional data in official statistics
