&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Gaps in data on women and girls particularly severe; countries do not invest enough in public intent data systems, the report said&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Most countries have shied away from an open-data policy &amp;mdash; more so countries with developing economies, according to a recent World Bank report.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Only 11 per cent low-income countries consistently made available with a license classifiable as &amp;rsquo;open&amp;rsquo;, the report flagged. The comparable rate for lower-middle-income countries was 19 per cent, for upper-middle-income countries 22 per cent and high-income countries 44 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Public intent data should be safeguarded as a global public good and resource to achieve equitable and sustainable development, the report released March 25, 2021 underscored.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Public intent data, a foundation of public policies, can bring value to development by:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Improving service delivery&lt;br /&gt;
* Prioritising scarce resources&lt;br /&gt;
* Holding governments accountable and empowering individuals&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The exercise can also lead to a better emergency response during disasters &amp;mdash; environmental, financial, health or conflict-related. For example, weather data, especially weather forecasts, can help people anticipate and prepare for extreme events, the report said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Odisha State Disaster Management Authority and the Government of Odisha, for example, invested in acquiring data on weather forecast and disaster response measures after the cyclone in 1999.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The report flagged underinvestment in public intent data systems: Only half the countries had a national statistical plan that was fully funded as of 2019. While 93 per cent of high-income countries had a fully funded national statistical plan, not a single low-income country had one.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;According to the report:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Lower-income countries were unable to harness the potential of data due to a lack of institutions, decision-making autonomy, and financial resources, all of which hold back their effective implementation and effectiveness of data systems and governance frameworks.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Gaps in data on women and girls were particularly severe: Only 10 of the 54 gender-specific indicators (19 per cent) in the United Nations-mandated sustainable development goals were widely available. Only 24 per cent of the available gender-specific indicators were from 2010 or later.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The report acknowledged that gender impacts of the pandemic have been incompletely measured due to gaps in sex-disaggregated data.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Gaps in data on women and girls particularly severe; countries do not invest enough in public intent data systems, the report said&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Most countries have shied away from an open-data policy &amp;mdash; more so countries with developing economies, according to a recent World Bank report.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Only 11 per cent low-income countries consistently made available with a license classifiable as &amp;rsquo;open&amp;rsquo;, the report flagged. The comparable rate for lower-middle-income countries was 19 per cent, for upper-middle-income countries 22 per cent and high-income countries 44 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Public intent data should be safeguarded as a global public good and resource to achieve equitable and sustainable development, the report released March 25, 2021 underscored.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Public intent data, a foundation of public policies, can bring value to development by:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Improving service delivery&lt;br /&gt;
* Prioritising scarce resources&lt;br /&gt;
* Holding governments accountable and empowering individuals&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The exercise can also lead to a better emergency response during disasters &amp;mdash; environmental, financial, health or conflict-related. For example, weather data, especially weather forecasts, can help people anticipate and prepare for extreme events, the report said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Odisha State Disaster Management Authority and the Government of Odisha, for example, invested in acquiring data on weather forecast and disaster response measures after the cyclone in 1999.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The report flagged underinvestment in public intent data systems: Only half the countries had a national statistical plan that was fully funded as of 2019. While 93 per cent of high-income countries had a fully funded national statistical plan, not a single low-income country had one.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;According to the report:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Lower-income countries were unable to harness the potential of data due to a lack of institutions, decision-making autonomy, and financial resources, all of which hold back their effective implementation and effectiveness of data systems and governance frameworks.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Gaps in data on women and girls were particularly severe: Only 10 of the 54 gender-specific indicators (19 per cent) in the United Nations-mandated sustainable development goals were widely available. Only 24 per cent of the available gender-specific indicators were from 2010 or later.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The report acknowledged that gender impacts of the pandemic have been incompletely measured due to gaps in sex-disaggregated data.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Gaps in data on women and girls particularly severe; countries do not invest enough in public intent data systems, the report said&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Most countries have shied away from an open-data policy &amp;mdash; more so countries with developing economies, according to a recent World Bank report.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Only 11 per cent low-income countries consistently made available with a license classifiable as &amp;rsquo;open&amp;rsquo;, the report flagged. The comparable rate for lower-middle-income countries was 19 per cent, for upper-middle-income countries 22 per cent and high-income countries 44 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Public intent data should be safeguarded as a global public good and resource to achieve equitable and sustainable development, the report released March 25, 2021 underscored.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Public intent data, a foundation of public policies, can bring value to development by:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Improving service delivery&lt;br /&gt;
* Prioritising scarce resources&lt;br /&gt;
* Holding governments accountable and empowering individuals&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The exercise can also lead to a better emergency response during disasters &amp;mdash; environmental, financial, health or conflict-related. For example, weather data, especially weather forecasts, can help people anticipate and prepare for extreme events, the report said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Odisha State Disaster Management Authority and the Government of Odisha, for example, invested in acquiring data on weather forecast and disaster response measures after the cyclone in 1999.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The report flagged underinvestment in public intent data systems: Only half the countries had a national statistical plan that was fully funded as of 2019. While 93 per cent of high-income countries had a fully funded national statistical plan, not a single low-income country had one.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;According to the report:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Lower-income countries were unable to harness the potential of data due to a lack of institutions, decision-making autonomy, and financial resources, all of which hold back their effective implementation and effectiveness of data systems and governance frameworks.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Gaps in data on women and girls were particularly severe: Only 10 of the 54 gender-specific indicators (19 per cent) in the United Nations-mandated sustainable development goals were widely available. Only 24 per cent of the available gender-specific indicators were from 2010 or later.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The report acknowledged that gender impacts of the pandemic have been incompletely measured due to gaps in sex-disaggregated data.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Gaps in data on women and girls particularly severe; countries do not invest enough in public intent data systems, the report said&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Most countries have shied away from an open-data policy &amp;mdash; more so countries with developing economies, according to a recent World Bank report.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Only 11 per cent low-income countries consistently made available with a license classifiable as &amp;rsquo;open&amp;rsquo;, the report flagged. The comparable rate for lower-middle-income countries was 19 per cent, for upper-middle-income countries 22 per cent and high-income countries 44 per cent.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Public intent data should be safeguarded as a global public good and resource to achieve equitable and sustainable development, the report released March 25, 2021 underscored.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Public intent data, a foundation of public policies, can bring value to development by:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Improving service delivery&lt;br /&gt;
* Prioritising scarce resources&lt;br /&gt;
* Holding governments accountable and empowering individuals&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The exercise can also lead to a better emergency response during disasters &amp;mdash; environmental, financial, health or conflict-related. For example, weather data, especially weather forecasts, can help people anticipate and prepare for extreme events, the report said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Odisha State Disaster Management Authority and the Government of Odisha, for example, invested in acquiring data on weather forecast and disaster response measures after the cyclone in 1999.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The report flagged underinvestment in public intent data systems: Only half the countries had a national statistical plan that was fully funded as of 2019. While 93 per cent of high-income countries had a fully funded national statistical plan, not a single low-income country had one.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;According to the report:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Lower-income countries were unable to harness the potential of data due to a lack of institutions, decision-making autonomy, and financial resources, all of which hold back their effective implementation and effectiveness of data systems and governance frameworks.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Gaps in data on women and girls were particularly severe: Only 10 of the 54 gender-specific indicators (19 per cent) in the United Nations-mandated sustainable development goals were widely available. Only 24 per cent of the available gender-specific indicators were from 2010 or later.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The report acknowledged that gender impacts of the pandemic have been incompletely measured due to gaps in sex-disaggregated data.&lt;/p&gt;

Only 11% low-income countries make their data open: World Bank report -Kiran Pandey

-Down to Earth Gaps in data on women and girls particularly severe; countries do not invest enough in public intent data systems, the report said Most countries have shied away from an open-data policy — more so countries with developing economies, according to a recent World Bank report. Only 11 per cent low-income countries consistently made available with a license classifiable as ’open’, the report flagged. The comparable rate for lower-middle-income countries was 19 per cent, for upper-middle-income countries 22 per cent and high-income countries 44 per cent. Public intent data should be safeguarded as a global public good and resource to achieve equitable and sustainable development, the report released March 25, 2021 underscored. Public intent data, a foundation of public policies, can bring value to development by: * Improving service delivery * Prioritising scarce resources * Holding governments accountable and empowering individuals The exercise can also lead to a better emergency response during disasters — environmental, financial, health or conflict-related. For example, weather data, especially weather forecasts, can help people anticipate and prepare for extreme events, the report said. Odisha State Disaster Management Authority and the Government of Odisha, for example, invested in acquiring data on weather forecast and disaster response measures after the cyclone in 1999. The report flagged underinvestment in public intent data systems: Only half the countries had a national statistical plan that was fully funded as of 2019. While 93 per cent of high-income countries had a fully funded national statistical plan, not a single low-income country had one. According to the report:     Lower-income countries were unable to harness the potential of data due to a lack of institutions, decision-making autonomy, and financial resources, all of which hold back their effective implementation and effectiveness of data systems and governance frameworks. Gaps in data on women and girls were particularly severe: Only 10 of the 54 gender-specific indicators (19 per cent) in the United Nations-mandated sustainable development goals were widely available. Only 24 per cent of the available gender-specific indicators were from 2010 or later. The report acknowledged that gender impacts of the pandemic have been incompletely measured due to gaps in sex-disaggregated data. Please click here to read more.
