Takeaway from #UNGA data roundtable: #Data gaps are getting worse. 2/3 of Africa & 1/2 of Latin America Caribbean countries postponed a planned population census as of 2021. Result? People most in need are at risk of being left behind in national planning. @worldbankdata

I joined #Ghana VP @MBawumiadata & data champions with @UN @AminaJMohammed at #WBG Spring Meetings to call for support to scale up investments in #data. We're working with countries to build better data systems, overcome data deprivation, generate quality data & put data to work.

Great to see @Mari_Pangestu and @AminaJMohammed teaming up and calling for more investments in #Data4Development.
And even better to see @SwissDevCoop joining this call and remaining so strongly committed to this important agenda.
