The #Pacific needs support to both achieve the targets set by the #GlobalGoals & to collect, analyse and disseminate the #data which will allow countries, the region & the international community to truly measure progress towards the #SDGs teapawt.org/pjwfoster/status/96428…

Less [data] is more [value, consistency, privacy, security]. "With less data: - It is easier to ensure consistency - There are smaller costs - It is quicker to analyse - It is easier to repeat often - Less data at risk of exposure" medium.com/@Simon_B_Johnson/…
