The National Statistics Institute (INE) of Paraguay has launched a groundbreaking Inclusive Data Charter (IDC) Action Plan, marking a significant milestone in the country's commitment to more responsive and equitable data ecosystems.
Since joining the Inclusive Data Charter in 2021, Paraguay has been working to develop a strategic approach that will transform how national statistics are collected, analyzed, and utilized. The newly unveiled action plan represents a critical step towards ensuring that data truly reflects the diversity and complexity of Paraguay's population.
The IDC Action Plan focuses on several key priorities:
- Enhancing migration data collection to provide more timely and accurate information.
- Developing statistical instruments that support more effective decision-making.
- Identifying and engaging key institutional sources to capture disaggregated data.
- Assessing and improving the country's capacity to generate specific, meaningful statistical information.
By prioritizing inclusive data practices, Paraguay is demonstrating a commitment to leaving no one behind. The action plan will help policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders better understand the nuanced realities of the country's population, particularly for marginalized and often overlooked communities.
