The project forms part of plans to rebuild institutional capacity that was weakened in Somalia during several years of conflict. The absence of sound economic and social data has hampered planning and constrained investment in the country.

The aim is to make greater use of statistics, especially for policy formulation, planning, decision-making, monitoring and evaluation. This is in line with the Country’s Ninth National Development Plan and the Somalia National Strategy for the Development of Statistics.

It also fulfills one of the Bank’s High 5 strategic priorities, namely “Improving the quality of life of Africans.” The Bank’s statistics department will monitor implementation of the project.
