摘要:Efforts to design effective development policies aimed
at enhancing the welfare of people in the Latin America
and Caribbean (LAC) region depend on the improved
measurement of living conditions, strengthened
information baselines in monitoring and evaluation
systems and the availability of high quality statistical
information. The World Bank’s Team for Statistical
Development (TSD)1 in the Latin America and Caribbean
(LAC) Region is working to increase the capacity of users
and producers of statistics to support improved evidencebased
policies through the use of high-quality statistics in
their design, implementation and evaluation. TSD supports
activities that emphasize innovative solutions and best
statistical practices in the region.
