Matching Emerging Data Needs in IEE to Conceptual Framework Economic Accounts (To Enhance FBS & SUA) Prices Trade Rural (sub-national) Data Household Consumption & Food Security Environmental and Ecosystem Services Agro-Environmental Climate Change Natural Resources Energy/ Bio-fuels Water Land/soil (cartography & cadastre)

12. Architecture of Global Strategy

13. Roles of Conceptual Framework Ensure consistency, completeness and comparability among all indicators Ensure indicators so selected to be meaningful and significant

14. Roles of Conceptual Framework Apply international classification (CPC) to select major commodities Use accounting aggregates and balancing items to construct economic, social, and environmental indicators Compile derived indicators by combining aggregates & balancing items Compile composite or ratio indicators by combining data from different accounts and tables

15. Architecture of Global Strategy

17. Current FBS and SUA (in Volume)

19. Architecture of Global Strategy

20. Roles of Conceptual Framework For data from different administrative records, surveys and censuses, the conceptual framework Being a comprehensive and coordinating data framework for compilation To identify and reduce overlapping and data gaps To cross-check and reconcile inconsistency to make all the data comparable
