Abstract

Statistical information has become a vital and indispensable tool world over. The use of harmonized and reliable statistics in all fields of political, social, economic and cultural activity is recommended for the monitoring of the implementation of the integration process in the African continent and across the world. According to the African Union charter, Statistics authorities should be endowed with a clear legal mandate empowering them to collect data for production of African statistics. Data production may need to cover emerging areas that require or are likely to require brand new data collections tools, and it is important to consider users’ priorities for new statistical outputs. The relationship between the producers and users of official statistics will involve each partner building on and contributing different strengths and will likely result in flexible networks.
