This requires reliable data at the country level

Imputed data does not help analysis at the country level.

The level of data collection by country within each region varies by frequency of data collection, coverage of the country and scope of outlets.

The United Nations country area codes will be applied at the data records level.

Furthermore this level of response rate is based on the assumption that country modified data can be treated as country data, although some countries will argue that country modified data is not accurate at least for some indicators.

Further research has refined some of the original dimensions, and introduced the difference between country level and individual level data in analysis.

One agreed country level monitoring and evaluation system, a single functional data collection and analysis system at the country level that meets the needs of both donors and programme implementers.

For many indicators, there were more recent country level data available than indicated in the MDG database.

(b) In cases where international agencies make country level estimates in the absence of country data, the method used should be fully documented

Country data

Data was available at country level for four indicators, although the database indicated it was estimated or not available.

Our first concern is that selected country level studies have shown that the MDG database does not accurately reflect the availability of data at country level (see annexes I to III for specific details).

(no country data), we do have data.

Data was available at country level for six indicators, although the database indicated that it was estimated or not available.

The Board approved that recommendation with instructions to consider whether the Global Office could access country level individual prices without actually holding the data.

The indicators for which data is available at the country level for a relatively small number of countries, or in some cases no countries, are

As a consequence, effective monitoring of progress towards achievement of MDGs is first and foremost dependent on the availability of national or country level data.

Although the availability of indicators for country are less than desirable, we were surprised at the extent to which the MDG database did not accurately capture data that already exists at the country level.

MobileActive has detailed mobile data by country.

Data from the first data collections have been reviewed by country and regional offices.

But statistical analysis of this evidence the only accessible macro level quantitative data for the whole country does not confirm caste as a clear indicator of deprivation.

For most of the MDGs, more data is generally available at the national level, and possibly used in MDG country reports, than is presented in the MDG database.

(a) Accelerated implementation at country level

OHCHR activities at the country level

(a) International agencies need to improve their description of the manner in which they adjust current data in order to resolve any confusion, since country level data on the MDG database is used, and assumed to be correct, by many users.

The data shown as CM (country data modified) also show about one third being seriously wrong.

The Global Office expects to receive country level average prices and related diagnostic variables from the regions after each data collection, followed by the final national annual average prices.

The tool pack is not being used in Africa at the country level, but its data processing module is used by the African Development Bank to generate Quaranta tables.

We recommend that there be no imputation of data at the country level unless the methodology has been reviewed and approved by an international panel of experts (see para.

Documenting how data are collected, processed and disseminated, including information about editing mechanisms applied to country data

(b) There has been a more concerted effort put on capacity building, which has resulted in the increased availability of data on the MDG database and at the country level.

The United Nations at the country level

Implementation and monitoring at the country level

Country level capacity crucial for gender mainstreaming.

The Friends of the Chair recommend that there be no imputation of data at the country level unless the methodology has been reviewed and approved by an international panel of experts.

Linkages between the country programme and the regional programme is weak and there is relatively little follow up at the country level to ensure that advocacy at the regional level is transformed into action at the country level.

Country level capacity of the United Nations system

Regional workshops were held to train country staff on data quality.

Data collection methods and their applicability in a developing country context

Data collected by the NGOs indicate that the level of violence is much higher than the level of reported criminal activities.

For example, data variability at the basic heading level may be too great for PPPs at that level to be published.

Of the data that are marked C (country data), about one third had serious differences from our own sources either in the actual data or in the number of available data points.
