As the global development community promotes the concept of a “data revolution”, it is necessary to once again take stock of what resources are being directed to statistical systems.

0.16% | The share of ODA dedicated to statistics fell from 0.32% in 2011 to 0.16% in 2012; 2013 figures for all ODA are not yet available. |
