Integrating economic, social and environmental information into extended accounts and indicators and indexes so as to measure well-being, inclusion and sustainable development is a shared statistical and policy priority. A series of user consultations with the statistical and policy community is being organized by the Network of the Economic Statisticians and the five Regional Commissions of the United Nations Secretariat to improve understanding of the priorities of national statistical offices and their statistical systems.
The Beyond GDP: Priorities in measuring well-being, inclusion, and sustainability for African and Arab countries webinar, organized by the Network in collaboration with the United Nations Statistics Division, the Economic Commission for Africa and ESCWA, provides an opportunity for information sharing and networking on regional statistical programme priorities and initiatives and the findings of the Network’s Beyond GDP Sprint to improve economic, socio-demographic and environment statistics, indicators and accounts for the multidimensional measurement of well-being, cohesion and sustainability.
