11 Data and Challenges The importance of data at the regional level: Provides more accurate results compared to averages at the national level. Helps to draft and implement appropriate region specific policies for economic and social issues. Challenges in Indicator Calculation Human Resources challenges: availability of expertise capable of data collection, calculation and analysis of indicators. Availability of modernized, accurate, merged and overarching databases. Develop a framework for coordination between the concerned authorities to efficiently implement as allowing for the implementation of these goals more efficiently. Take advantage of the indicators in identifying gaps, assessing needs, setting priorities and drafting policies. 10/30/

12 Summary of data availability for indicator computation Pillars Number of Indicators Devised Indicators Common Indicators* Unavailable Indicators Common unavailable indicators SDS unavailable indicators Total Urban Development Transparency and Efficiency of Government Institutions Social Justice Knowledge, innovation and scientific research Health Energy Culture pre-university Education and Training vocational higher education Economic Development Environment *Common indicators are included in all of the United Nations sustainable development goals and national sustainable development strategy 10/30/

13 The Way Forward Holding intensive workshops between the different society actors (including civil society, private sector, government representatives, experts and academics) to discuss the indicators and integration mechanisms into the planning and monitoring system. Holding specialized training courses to prepare expertise capable of data collection and indicators calculation and analysis. Agreeing on data requirements, collection methodology and the role of agencies. Providing funding and technical assistance from international institutions. The development of a national action plan for data collection and indicators assessment, including a matrix of responsibilities and timeframe. In addition to, the agreement on the reports (content, methodology and periodicity). Agreeing on a unified Arab stance and the exchange of regional experiences, information and resources. 10/20/
