  • United Nations Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics
    UNITED NATIONS United Nations Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics Implementation Guidelines United Nations Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics Implementation guidelines (Final draft, subject to editing) (January 2015) Table of contents Foreword 3 Introduction 4 PART I: Implementation guidelines for the Fundamental Principles 8 RELEVANCE, IMPARTIALITY AND EQUAL ACCESS 9 PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS, SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES, AND PROFESSIONAL ETHICS 22 ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY 31 PREVENTION OF MISUSE 38 SOURCES OF OFFICIAL STATISTICS 43 CONFIDENTIALITY 51 LEGISLATION 62 NATIONAL COORDINATION 68 USE OF INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS 80 INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION 91 ANNEX 98 Part II: Implementation guidelines on how to ensure independence 99 HOW TO ENSURE INDEPENDENCE 100 UN Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics – Implementation guidelines, 2015 2 Foreword The Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics (FPOS) are a pillar of the Global Statistical System. By enshrining our profound conviction and commitment that offi- cial statistics have to adhere to well-defined professional and scientific standards, they define us as a professional community, reaching across political, economic and cultural borders. They have stood the test of time and remain as relevant today as they were when they were first adopted over twenty years ago. In an appropriate recognition of their significance for all societies, who aspire to shape their own fates in an informed manner, the Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics were adopted on 29 January 2014 at the highest political level as a General Assembly resolution (A/RES/68/261). This is, for us, a moment of great pride, but also of great responsibility and opportunity. In order for the Principles to be more than just a statement of noble intentions, we need to renew our efforts, individually and collectively, to make them the basis of our day-to-day statistical work.

  • The Capability Approach and Well-Being Measurement for Public Policy
    Oxford Poverty & Human Development Initiative (OPHI) Oxford Department of International Development Queen Elizabeth House (QEH), University of Oxford OPHI WORKING PAPER NO. 94 The Capability Approach and Well-Being Measurement for Public Policy Sabina Alkire* March 2015 Abstract This chapter presents Sen’s capability approach as a framework for well-being measurement with powerful and ongoing relevance to current work on measuring well-being in order to guide public policy. It discusses how preferences and values inform the relative weights across capabilities, then draws readers’ attention to measurement properties of multidimensional measures that have proven to be policy-relevant in poverty reduction. It presents a dual-cutoff counting methodology that satisfies these principles and outlines the assumptions that must be fulfilled in order to interpret ensuing indices as measuring capability poverty. It then discusses Bhutan’s innovative extension of this methodology in the Gross National Happiness Index and reflects upon whether it might be suited to other contexts. It closes with some remarks on relevant material in other Handbook chapters. Keywords: capability approach, Amartya Sen, preferences, ordinal data, relative weights, AF dual-cutoff counting methodology, multidimensional poverty, Bhutan’s Gross National Happiness Index. JEL classification: D60, I30, I32, A13 Acknowledgements This is a chapter 'The Capability Approach' drafted for Oxford Handbook on Well-being and Public Policy. The early sections of this chapter drew on a 2008 unpublished background note for the Sarkozy Commission. I am grateful to Amartya Sen, James Foster, and Enrica Chiappero-Martinetti for discussion and comments; I am also grateful to participants in the March 2014 Handbook workshop for * Oxford Poverty & Human Development Initiative, Oxford Department of International Development, University of Oxford, 3 Mansfield Road, Oxford OX1 3TB, UK, +44-1865-271915, [email protected].

  • Measuring Well-Being and Progress: Looking Beyond
    Measuring well-being and progress Looking beyond GDP SUMMARY Gross domestic product (GDP), a measure of national economic production, has come to be used as a general measure of well-being and progress in society, and as a key indicator in deciding a wide range of public policies. However GDP does not properly take into account non-economic factors such as social issues and the environment. In the aftermath of the economic and financial crisis, the European Union (EU) needs reliable, transparent and convincing measures for evaluating progress. Indicators of social aspects that play a large role in determining citizens' well-being are increasingly being used to supplement economic measures. Health, education and social relationships play a large role in determining citizens' well-being. Subjective evaluations of well-being can also be used as a measure of progress. Moreover, changes in the environment caused by economic activities (in particular depletion of non-renewable resources and increased greenhouse gas emissions) need to be evaluated so as to ensure that today's development is sustainable for future generations. The EU and its Member States, as well as international bodies, have a role in ensuring that we have accurate, useful and credible ways of measuring well-being and assessing progress in our societies. In this briefing: Background Objective social indicators Subjective well-being Environment and sustainability EU and international context Further reading Author: Ron Davies, Members' Research Service European Parliamentary Research Service 140738REV1 http://www.eprs.ep.parl.union.eu — http://epthinktank.eu [email protected] Measuring well-being and progress Background The limits of GDP Gross domestic product (GDP) measures the market value of all final goods and services produced within a country's borders in a given period, such as a year.1 It provides a simple and easily communicated monetary value that can be calculated from current market prices and that can be used to make comparisons between different countries.
