1 UIS activities in the collection and analysis of STI indicators and overview of data for West Africa West African Regional Science, Technology and Innovation Policy Reviews and Statistics Workshop Bamako, Mali May 2010
2 Objectives of this presentation Present the work that UIS does to support the collection and analysis of STI indicators in developing countries Provide an overview of the availability of STI indicators worldwide and in the region
3 UIS is the UN lead agency for S&T statistics Official S&T data source for: UN Statistical Division: UN Statistical Year Book UNDP: Human Development Report World Bank: World Development Indicators UNESCO Reports: UNESCO Science Report UNESCO World Report - Towards Knowledge Societies International Report on S&T and Gender
4 UIS Strategy on S&T statistics International Review of S&T Statistics and Indicators jointly with UNESCO Science Policy Division, , involving all Member States and numerous experts. Resulting priorities: Immediate term: R&D personnel & expenditure Human resources devoted to S&T Science education & Higher education International mobility Gender Medium term: Innovation data Starts next month! Longer term: Output & Impact
5 UIS Medium-Term Strategy Priorities: 1. Improving data quality 2. Reinforcing statistics and indicators on learning outcomes 3. Strengthening statistics in science, culture and communication
6 Lines of action 1. S&T survey operation and data guardianship 2. Training in S&T statistics: workshops & other training activities 3. Standard setting and methodological developments 4. Analysis and publications
7 1. S&T Survey operation and data guardianship Global survey on statistics of science & technology Global database on S&T Statistics Data dissemination: on the UIS website and through contributions to other agencies Next year pilot survey of innovation data
8 Survey on Statistics of Science & Technology Biennially. The 2004, 2006 and 2008 S&T statistics surveys have been completed. 3 rd round was launched in June The latest results were released on the UIS website in September 2009 (see 4 th round will be launched in May OECD and Eurostat provide data for their Member States. RICYT provides data for Latin America. UIS keeps direct contact with national S&T statisticians.
9 Data collection R&D Personnel By sector of employment, occupation, qualification, and field of science In headcount and FTE By gender R&D Expenditure By sector of performance and source of funds New: by type of activity and field of science
10 Other data of interest but not (yet?) collected by UIS Researchers by age Researchers by country of birth; citizenship/resident status Researchers by fields of science at 2 digit level R&D expenditure by type of cost (Current / Capital) R&D expenditure by major socio-economic objective Government budget appropriations or outlays for R&D (GBAORD): Total; by major socio-economic objective Business enterprise researchers by industry / branch of economic activity (at 1 digit level of International Standard Industrial Classification, ISIC) Business enterprise R&D expenditure by industry / branch of economic activity (at 1 digit level of ISIC)

30 Quality of data Consistency over time and space Accessibility and affordability Comparability through standards Efficient use of resources Clarity and transparency Validity and reliability Relevance to policy Potential for disaggregation Currency and punctuality Coherence across sources
31 2. Capacity building There are many problems: Lack of understanding of importance of S&T (indicators) Lack of political will and action Lack of coordination Lack of trained personnel High staff turnover
32 Capacity building (2) Measurement problems: Measuring real effort (full-time equivalents) Private sector R&D Budget data vs. surveys Role of foreign entities
33 S&T statistics workshops Increase the number of countries regularly producing quality S&T indicators. Create local capacities and establish sustainable local S&T statistics systems. Promote the use of S&T indicators for evidence-based S&T policy making. Share experiences with other developing countries and address problems. Gain knowledge about the particular characteristics of S&T statistics data. Demonstrate good practices in other countries of the region.
34 UIS S&T Statistics workshops 2005: Uganda, India 2006: Indonesia, Senegal, Kazakhstan 2007: Tunisia, FYR of Macedonia, Jordan, Brazil, Russia, Cameroon 2008: Oman, Cambodia 2009: Kenya, Egypt But also contributing to similar workshops of partner organisations (e.g. RICYT, NEPAD)
35 Countries that have participated in UNESCO S&T statistics workshops Countries and territories covered Countries and territories covered but absent Countries and territories not yet covered Countries and territories not targeted
36 Results of workshops Increased response rate non-responding countries learn how to do it from UIS and neighbours. Immediate problems solved. Increased data quality improved understanding of application of international standards. Face to face contacts = more effective networking. Inputs to UIS programme development.
37 3. Standard setting/methodological developments Careers of Doctoral Holders CDH (since 2004) Measuring Innovation in Developing countries: Annex to the Oslo Manual (2005) Will be presented separately Measuring R&D in Developing Countries: Technical Guide and Annex to the Frascati Manual (2010) Will be presented separately
38 The careers of doctorate holders survey (CDH) A joint project with the OECD and Eurostat. Methodology developed from scratch. Aimed both at developed and developing countries. With participation from experts from both developed and developing countries. Promoting the methodology by encouraging developing countries to conduct such surveys and produce cross-nationally comparable statistics on careers of doctorate holders.
39 Relevance of the CDH project There is a new focus on the crucial role of highly qualified individuals who represent a key to the production, application and transmission of knowledge. Statistics on the global trends in human resources for Science and Technology (HRST) are very weak. The quality and comparability of international data on migration is particularly weak. Diversity of data collection methods hinders international comparability, and does not provide information on career paths and mobility patterns.
40 Objectives: Objectives of CDH To design an internationally comparable tool for tracking the careers of doctorates holders and highly qualified people in different countries. to collect and exchange information on the career paths of holders of doctorates from existing data sources and the new survey tool.
41 Components: CDH toolkit Model questionnaire and Instruction Manual Output tables and variables definitions Methodological guidelines Bridge table model questionnaire - output tables See: URL_DO=DO_TOPIC&URL_SECTION=201 and
42 CDH modules Doctoral Education (EDU) Early Career Research positions (ECR) Employment situation (EMP) International mobility (MOB) Career-related experience (CAR) Personal characteristics (PER)

45 Collaboration with AU/NEPAD MOU between AU/NEPAD and UIS Attend each other s meetings Separate data collection for now Closer collaboration over the next few years
46 Way forward There is still a lot to do! Looking forward to further cooperation. UIS needs to keep direct contact with statisticians: Quality and relevance. Countries to establish sustainable S&T statistics systems, involving line ministries (S&T Ministries or Research Councils) and National Statistical Offices.
