UNCTAD and the West African Economic and Monetary Union - Union Economique et Monétaire Ouest Africaine (UEMOA) jointly hosted a workshop with statisticians from the National Statistical Institutes of the eight UEMOA member states in Niamey, Niger from 1-0 November 2017.

The purpose of the workshop was to ensure technical and logistical preparations for the first pilot data project collection were in place.

This first phase of the project will test a bespoke, harmonized questionnaire on three economic sectors (Construction, Information Communications & Telecommunications, and Transport).

National Statistical Institutes will report back to UNCTAD-UEMOA at the next workshop, tentatively scheduled for February 2018 in Benin. UNCTAD was represented by Steve MacFeely, Bojan Nastav and Viviane Mwitirehe.
