Africa’s City indicators validated by National Statistical Offices
On September 18 to 19 , participants representing twenty-eight African National Statistical Offices (NSOs) met to critically review and validate the Indicator set and Reference Guide on Sustainable Cities and Human Settlements. This initiative, conceptualized over a year ago, was led by the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), working closely with African National Statistical Offices (NSOs), the United Nations Human Settlement Program (UN-HABITAT), the African Union Commission (AUC) and the African Development Bank (AfDB). The Guide will provide a common Pan-African set of urban indicators measured using harmonized methodologies and concepts for comparability, making it easier for member States to monitor and report progress on regional and global commitments such as the sustainable development goals, Africa’s Agenda 2063 and the New Urban Agenda in the region.
