1. To innovate is to renovate
A review of PARIS21 innovations

2. PARIS21 Strategic Pillar
Knowledge sharing and Innovation Incubator
( PARIS21 Strategy)
Through its wide partnership, PARIS21 can advise on the suitability and sustainability of innovations, and share other countries’ experience. It also has the flexibility to implement pilot projects for statistical capacity building, and identify specific needs for which innovations would be tested - from improved data collection and use of technology to new methods in analysis, user promotion and data dissemination in a cost-effective manner.
