    Advancing Environmental Statistics in Ghana

    Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) together with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is working hard on establishing green national accounts., 19 August 2024 15:00 ,  , The development of robust statistics on environmental goods and services is crucial for understanding the economic contribution of initiatives focused on environmental protection and resource management. These statistics, which form part of the broader system of environmental-economic accounting- often referred to as "green national accounts" - offer valuable insights into the economic activities related to green goods and services. As countries worldwide prioritize sustainability, the ability to measure and report on these areas becomes increasingly important., In July, Ghana made significant progress in this area. Two experts from Statistics Denmark visited Accra to collaborate with representatives from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Ghana Statistical Services (GSS). Their mission was to develop a strategy for data collection and design effective questionnaires. This visit followed a previous mission that introduced key concepts related to environmental statistics, fostered understanding within the local context, and discussed potential implementation strategies., During the same week, the Executive Director of Ghana's EPA met with the experts from Statistics Denmark to discuss the implementation of the System of Environmental Economic Accounting (SEEA) in Ghana. The meeting underscored the critical role of collaboration between the EPA and Ghana Statistical Services (GSS) in advancing sustainable development. Over the coming years, GSS and EPA, with the support of Statistics Denmark, will focus on Water and Waste accounts to drive informed decision-making and promote a more sustainable future for Ghana., The second mission from Statistics Denmark yielded notable progress. Among the key outcomes was an enhanced understanding of the revised Classification of Environmental Purposes (CEP) among the Ghanaian partners. This classification is essential for accurately categorizing and measuring environmental expenditures. The partners also agreed to combine data collection efforts with the existing Business Survey (IBES 2). This approach is expected to streamline the process and ensure more comprehensive data collection., A critical aspect of the mission involved discussions on how to structure the questionnaire, which will be a primary tool in gathering the necessary data. These discussions culminated in an agreement on an ambitious action plan, with a target date set for publishing the statistics on green goods and services by the end of January 2026., This collaboration between Ghana and international experts from Statistics Denmark is part of the  Strategic Sector Cooperation scheme financed by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The collaboration represents a significant stride toward developing a reliable and comprehensive framework for environmental-economic accounting in the country. As Ghana continues to integrate these practices, the resulting data will be invaluable for shaping policies and strategies that support sustainable development and environmental stewardship.,  , You can read more about our different projects under the Strategic Sector Cooperation scheme here: ,  , Ghana, Morocco, Vietnam

    Asymmetries in statistics on International Trade in Goods

    Trustworthy, consistent and comparable figures about the level and the development of international trade in goods are extremely important for both economically and political reasons. When Georgia entered into the Free Trade Area with the EU in 2014, it was expected to have a positive influence on the trade between EU and Georgia., 19 October 2021 14:00 ,  , Trustworthy, consistent and comparable figures about the level and the development of international trade in goods are extremely important for both economically and political reasons. When Georgia entered into the Free Trade Area with the EU in 2014, it was expected to have a positive influence on the trade between EU and Georgia. It has been more than difficult to get a consistent picture of the trade between the two areas because of the huge differences (asymmetries) in statistics on trade in goods published by Eurostat and Geostat (National Statistics Office of Georgia) respectively. The differences have been both concerning the level and – even more worrying – also the trend in trade. , A fruitful and intensive 2-year cooperation between Geostat and Danish experts from Statistics Denmark in the frame of the Twinning project , Strengthening the Capacity of the Georgian Statistical System, has now resulted in a comprehensive report describing the nature, reasons and possible solutions to these asymmetries. The report is an important input to understanding asymmetries and how to handle them in the future “, Link, ”.  , Georgia’s geographical location on the shore of the Black Sea means that many goods traded between countries in Europe and mainly Armenia and Azerbaijan are transiting through Georgia. The European traders/custom are in many cases not aware that the specific imported/exported good is only transiting in Georgia and is therefore incorrectly reporting the good as being imported/exported from/to Georgia. Incorrect reporting of goods that are only transiting through Georgia are by far the major reason for the asymmetries according to the report prepared by the project, which has analysed in depths the methodology applied to trade in goods statistics in Georgia, the concepts applied and the practical data collection.  , The analysis thereby also implies that the Georgian data in the cases where goods are transiting in Georgia, are more likely to be correct than Eurostat’s data as the asymmetry appears due to incorrect declaration of country of origin (when EU is importing) and country of final destination (when goods are exported from the EU). In many of these cases, the hypothesis was supported by mirror analysis carried out on data from Azerbaijan, Armenia and Turkmenistan, which showed similar asymmetries in trade data with the EU. , Asymmetries might be caused by methodological reasons, as well as by data errors. A thorough review of the compilation of international trade in goods in Geostat has revealed a sound methodology applied in Geostat’s compilation of International Trade Statistics and great awareness of international standards. The analysis also indicates that there might be a few issues concerning the so-called trade system, volatile currency, high exemption threshold for export, imputation of missing import of cars and misclassifications of commodities, all of which are more or less out of the hands of Geostat, and more importantly, are minor issues in the big asymmetry picture. , Data errors are by far the biggest problem detected. A good understanding and overview of the nature and major sources of the data errors were obtained from structured in depths microlevel analysis involving a lot of correspondence with colleagues from 6 different EU National Statistical Offices and to some extent local importers/exporters. A lot of hard work remains to reduce the asymmetries in the future, requiring most of all careful training of individual data reporters concerning the importance of indicating the correct country of origin/country of final destination.

KAS is an averaging of the populations affiliation to the labour market per quarter and is published annually. KAS covers the hole population from 2017 and on, while it covers the employed part of the population 1st. - 4th. quarter from 2008 to 2017. , Statistical presentation, KAS is an annually individual-based averaging which is calculating the Danish population's affiliation to the labour market quarter. The statistic is among other things also distributed on information about demography and information about the work place for employees. The statistic is published in StatBank Denmark., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The quarterly labour force statistic is based on the Labour Market Account (LMA) which is a longitudinal register. LMA contains information about the populations primary attachment to the labour market on every day of the year. KAS is an averaging of the population's primary attachment to the labour market divided on quarters. , Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The quarterly labour force statistic (KAS) is primarily used to structural analysis of the labour market, because the statistic has a very detailed level of information. The statistic is therefore relevant to external as well as internal users and as foundation for analyzing the populations employment over the year. , Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, KAS is a register based average calculation of the populations primary attachment to the labour market, and the statistic uses the Labour Market Account (LMA) as data source. That first of all means that KAS doesn't contain the same uncertainties as statistics based on surveys. Second of all the data foundation for KAS provides a better opportunity to illuminate the labour market than before. KAS consists of a series of data sources which are integrated, corrected, and harmonized, and can therefore illuminate the populations attachment to the labour market significantly better than the single statistics can. , Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistic is published approximately 16 months after the reference point in time. RAS is typically published at the scheduled date without delay, and is planned more than a year ahead. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistic is first published in 2018 with data on 1.-4. quarter 2008-2016. Expect from data break in the classification of occupation in 2010 the statistic is comparable in the hole period 2008-2016. From 2019 and on the data foundation is slightly revised, and therefore there is a smaller data break regarding the employed population. Since 2019 the statistic besides from employed persons also includes the rest of the population in Denmark with information about their primary labour market attachment in the 1st.-4.th. quarter 2017. KAS is based on administrative registers with national character which makes it difficult to compare the statistic internationally., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistics are published in the StatBank under , Quarterly Labor force Statistics, employment, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity

    Morocco 2024-2026

    Statistics Denmark is implementing the second phase of a Strategic Sector Program in Morocco financed by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Our partner is the High Commission for Planning (Haut-Commissariat au Plan - HCP) which is the main producer of official Statistics in the Kingdom of Morocco., About Denmark’s Strategic Sector Cooperation,  (on the homepage of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs), Long-term ambitions, The second phase of collaboration between Statistics Denmark and Haut-Commissariat au Plan (HCP) aims in the longer run to establish and secure the preconditions for a sustainable national statistical system based on digital collection, processing and dissemination of administrative and to a lesser degree survey data. This to support the decision making for the development of the Moroccan society in general and the just green transition in particular., The second phase naturally builds on the results achieved in the first phase. During the first phase , the digitalisation of the statistical production process in HCP has progressed to a new level: With a new IT strategy, the establishment of a Data Management Centre, the use of web based surveys, implementation of a new software for the business register etc. the IT-infrastructure to receive, process and disseminate data is now more or less in place. , The aim in phase II is thus to secure a steady and continuous flow of data into the system - both from surveys and from administrative registers, and to finalize the quality aspects of the production of statistics and to publish it., You can read more about phase I and find videos about the project here, Strategic outcomes, The project has three strategic outcomes:, Improved statistical frameworks (or systems) supporting a just green transition in Morocco through strengthening NSO capacities to work with adequately and appropriately disaggregated survey and administrative data for statistics, for digitalization processes and for communication., HCP has strengthened their role as a trusted data provider, their capacities to cooperate and to access relevant sector data, and their provision of relevant and in-demand statistics to government, private institutions and the general public relevant to a just green transition., Accelerated required decisions on viable data-solutions for the data ecosystem including but not limited to those of relevance to a just green transition enabled by partners through exposition to Danish data-solution companies and the Danish Public Private Partnership data-ecosystem of statistics., Areas of collaboration, Improving HCPs capacity and the national statistical system is done by amongst other things improving the economic modelling capacities, digitalising prioritised statistical processes, continued work on IT and data security issues, finalising the establishment of a statistical business register and secure data flows, improving quality work, and providing technical support to the further development of the implementation of The System of Environmental Economic Accounting (SEEA)., Besides the efforts to further strengthen capacities in the production, the quality and the access to statistics efforts will be made to strengthen the cooperation between data providers and users establishing national partnerships with both government and private institutions. In practical terms through e.g. working groups and user groups, by drawing up aggreements, arranging work shops and study visits etc.

There will be the a low number of visitors for non state-subsidized zoo or gardens. State-subsidized zoo or gardens have a good coverage., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published annually approx. 5 months after the reference period., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, Data over time can be compared for state-supported zoos from 1984 until today, while for non-state-supported gardens and facilities there is a small data breach in 2010 and 2016. For zoos and aquariums with other state subsidies and those that are not subsidized by the state, there can be a variation in e.g. visitor numbers, etc., which is due to composition effects. That is it is not necessarily the same or the same number of zoos and aquariums that are included in the population or report to the statistics each year. Therefore, comparisons over time for zoos with other state subsidies and state subsidies should be made with caution., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistics are published in Nyt fra Danmarks Statistik (News from Statistics Denmark), in http://www.statbank.dk and on the , subject side on DST, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity
