dc.description | The UN Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) was actively disseminating the Global Strategy to Improve Agricultural and Rural Statistics across five more African countries. In a strategic move, the Commission was running a training workshop in Yaounde, Cameroon, to provide statisticians with the practical skills and tools necessary for conducting agriculture surveys to help leaders formulate well-informed agricultural policies.
This workshop was attended by senior civil servants drawn from national statistics offices and ministries in charge of agriculture in Cameroon, Madagascar, the Central African Republic, Chad, and Comoros. Their task was to study the use of master samples for agricultural censuses and surveys. This data collection system promoted by the Global Strategy to Improve Agricultural and Rural Statistics was adopted by the United Nations Statistical Commission in February 2010.
The workshop was the result of a joint effort by ECA, the capacity-building component of the Global Strategy to Improve Agricultural and Rural Statistics, the African Group on Statistical Training and Human Resources (AGROST), as well as Cameroon’s National Institute of Statistics and its Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. | en |
