To All CBMS Partners,

We are pleased to invite you to participate in the CBMS session on Generating Local Level Statistics for More Informed Policymaking through the Community-Based Monitoring System  in the  forthcoming 2020 Virtual United Nations World Data Forum to be held on October 20, 2020 at 11:00 am-12:15 noon UTC. Below is the CBMS session program for reference.

The CBMS session (TED talk - TA2-5.01) for the UN World Data Forum features presentations and discussion on how the adoption of the CBMS can address crucial data gaps and requirements for design of appropriate policies and interventions, more focused targeting, and impact monitoring in the context of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) agenda and implications of the global Covid pandemic.  

Aside from the CBMS session on October 20, 2020, the CBMS Network will also be showcasing the implementation of CBMS in different countries and the various applications of CBMS relating to local governance, planning and budgeting, poverty mapping,  multidimensional poverty analysis, and localizing the SDGs among others through a virtual exhibit as part of the 3 day UNWDF event from October 19-21. 

You may register online and get your free tickets to participate in the CBMS session and  in the 3 day UN World Data Forum through: https://unstats.un.org/unsd/undataforum/index.html

Looking forward to your participation in the forum.

Best regards,
CBMS Network Team
