SB urged to modernise data dissemination

Programme coordinator at the PARIS21 secretariat for the Africa region, Shelton Kanyanda said data dissemination in Botswana has not been very good, as most reports were made public in formats that were not friendly to the user.

“For instance, reports were disseminated only in PDF (Portable Document Format) without accompanying them with Microsoft Excel files for the tables that have been used. This is very critical for the users,” he said.
