Enhancing Data Management

In today's data-driven world, the efficient exchange, analysis, and dissemination of statistical data is vital for informed decision-making and policy formulation across both government and the private sector. However, the entry of new data producers and a surge in available data poses challenges for traditional statistical entities, compelling them to innovate while maintaining data quality. In response, the SDMX standard has emerged as a solution, offering a comprehensive framework to streamline data activities and promote interoperability.

Data and statistical analysis in the Asia and Pacific region contributes to knowledge generation in ADB, helping strengthen its institutional priorities and operational effectiveness in its developing member countries.

Sustainable Development Goals in Asia and the Pacific

The world is significantly off track in achieving the SDGs by 2030.

Asia and the Pacific has made tangible progress on Goal 1 on poverty eradication and on Goal 9 on industry, innovation, and infrastructure. However, it has also regressed on Goal 13 – on climate action -- and is stalling on a range of other SDGs. Accelerating progress on the SDGs is therefore critical for the region to achieve a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable future.
