Efforts to design effective development
policies aimed at enhancing the welfare of people in the
Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region depend on the
improved measurement of living conditions, strengthened
information baselines in monitoring and evaluation systems
and the availability of high quality statistical
information. The World Bank's Team for Statistical
Development (TSD) in the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC)
Region is working to increase the capacity of users and
producers of statistics to support improved evidence based
policies through the use of high-quality statistics in their
design, implementation and evaluation. TSD supports
activities that emphasize innovative solutions and best
statistical practices in the region. As part of this
approach, and with the financial support of the British
Department for International Development (DFID), a Regional
Award for Innovation in Statistics was launched in July
2007. The Award aimed to recognize the importance of
statistics in development and promote innovation in this
area and was the first of its kind, not only in the LAC
Region, but worldwide. |
