Data integration approaches are becoming increasingly popular among official statisticians and data producers; however, more institutional and technical capacity is required to fully realise their potential. To strengthen the capacity of statistical systems in Asia and the Pacific, ESCAP has released the Asia-Pacific Guidelines to Data Integration for Official Statistics and launched the Data Integration Community of Practice, a forum for sharing relevant knowledge and experience and learning. Furthermore, in 2022, ESCAP, in collaboration with the National Statistics Office (NSO) of Nepal, initiated a project to implement a tailored approach in Nepal to improve the capacity of the National Statistical System (NSS) to integrate data and produce better data for measuring Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators. This Stats Brief provides an overview of the project and the technical advisory and capacity-building support provided to the NSO of Nepal and its data partners.
