26Th National Statistics Month

CALENDAR OF ACTIVITIES 26TH NSM THEME TRANSLATION

"Pagyamanin at Gamitin ang Estadistika, Kalusugan para sa Lahat ay Abot-Kamay Na"

Ang kalusugan ay susi upang mapagtagumpayan ang tinatamasang kaunlaran sa buong bansa. Sa katunayan, ang sektor ng kalusugan ay minamatyagan sa Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) at itinuturing na mahalagang sektor na kailangang pagyamanin katuwang ang pag-unlad ng isang bansa. Sa MDGs, bukod sa maibsan ang kahirapan ng bansa, ang pokus ay ang pagtataguyod ng kalusugan ng mga bata at mga ina pati na ang paglaban at pagsugpo sa sakit na HIV at AIDS, malaria at iba pa.

Lalo’t higit ngayon, pinaghahandaan ng ating Philippine Statistical System (PSS) ang pagmomonitor sa panibagong Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) na siyang kahalili ng MDGs. Sa panibagong SDGs na ito ay mas pinalawig ang mga isyung dapat bigyan ng pansin sa pamamagitan ng pagdaragdag ng layunin, kasunod ang pagdaragdag din naman ng bilang na target at bilang ng mga indikasyon sa pagmomonitor ng pag-usad ng mga layunin. Binibigyang-diin din ang ating pangangailan ng mga datos tungkol sa populasyon at kalusugan na dapat na bigyang halaga at gamitin sa paggawa ng polisiya at programa.

Isa sa mga layunin ng Pangulong Benigno S. Aquino III sa kanyang panunungku- lan ang Kalusugan Para Sa Lahat o the Universal Health Care of the Aquino Health Agenda. Tungkulin nito na mabigyan ng kalidad at pantay na serbisyong pangkalusugan ang lahat ng mamamayang Pilipino, mapa-mayaman man o mahirap. Para maisakatuparan ito, ipinapatupad ang malawakang pagsasaayos ng mga pampub- likong pagamutan pati na rin ng mga pasilidad hanggang sa malilit na mga himpilang pangkalusugan sa bansa. Pinapalawak din ang pagiging miyembro ng PhilHealth ng mga mamamayang Pilipino. Ang mga programang pangkalusugan ay inilalapit, lalo na sa mga kababayan nating maralita. Nakikita na sa tulong ng tamang estadistika, mapagkakatiwalaan at palagiang pagbibigay impormasyon ukol sa kalagayan ng kalusugan ng mga mamamayang Pilipino ay uusad pa ang nasabing layunin.

Kaya naman sa pagdiriwang ng 26th National Statistics Month ay ating kikilalanin kung paano nakakatulong ang estadistika upang ilapit ang mga Pilipino sa mga programang pangkalusugan at iangat ang estado ng kalusugan ng lahat sa ating bansa. Sa gabay na ibinibigay ng mapagkakatiwalaang estadistikang pangkalusugan, tinutugunan ang pangangailangan ng mga mamayang Pilipino upang mas mapabuti ang kanilang kalusugan at paggawa tungo sa mas progresibong ekonomiya.

MESSAGE

My warmest greetings to the Philippine Statistical Community and the Philippine Statistical System (PSS), as you celebrate the National Statistics Month.

For the past 25 years, the National Statistics Month has partnered with various agencies in conducting studies aimed at improving the timeliness, methodology, and quality of data collection and interpretation. Now on its 26th year, it continues to be an effective tool in promoting public awareness and appreciation on the importance of statistics in nation- building. We have taken note of the growing demand and relevance of statistical analyses in our rapidly shifting milieu, as you focus on mobilizing statistics in realizing our goal of comprehensive healthcare. May this event be an opportunity to improve your sector further, and allow you to express even greater solidarity with our commitment to truth-telling and sound, strategic governance.

A crucial step in eradicating poverty is securing our people’s health: A healthy population leads to a strengthened workforce, which is a key component of economic development. With this in mind, health planners rely on accurate statistics made by the PSS, to identify target beneficiaries and formulate inclusive, responsive programs attuned to their needs. PhilHealth, in particular, has greatly benefited from the expertise of our statisticians: It has expanded their health assistance coverage from 47.0 million Filipinos in 2010 to 89.4 million Filipinos as of July this year, based on the data and analyses provided by our statistics professionals. This accomplishment was made possible through the efforts of government towards providing accessible healthcare, formulated based on quantity statistics.

May the Philippine Statistics Authority always uphold integrity, transparency and accountability, for these rebound to the even more equitably progressive Philippines that we rightfully deserve. Together, let us carry on along the Daang Matuwid and secure the continuity of our momentum towards lasting, meaningful change. I wish you a successful celebration this month.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE PHILIPPINES

MESSAGE

On behalf of the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA), I extend my warmest greetings to the Philippines Statistical System (PSS) for another exemplary year of upholding the role of statistics in the national development, and ensuring the support of the public in the continuous enhancement of the quality of statistics in the country.

Accurate, coherent and reliable statistical information and evidence are crucial in allocating limited resources, and in ensuring that the policy decisions and actions truly respond to people’s needs. As I mentioned during the Philippines Statistical Authority’s (PSA) Forum of Population and Social Statistics last March, many of the policies and recommendations included in the Updated Philippine Development Plan are influenced by insights generated from data generated by the Philippine Statistics Authority. As we monitor our country’s progress towards achieving national growth and alleviating poverty, statistics continue to play a pivotal role.

This year, the National Statistics Month is hosted by the Department of Health, and carries the theme “Pagyamanin At Gamitin ang Estadistika, Kalusugan para sa Lahat ay Abot – Kamay Na”. The theme highlights the importance of the health sector in national development, and the role of statistics in ensuring that health services are effectively delivered to the public. This crucial responsibility is shown in the monitoring of the country’s progress in meeting development targets under the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), and will continue as we move on to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

As Chairperson of the PSA Board and Secretary of Socioeconomic Planning, I wish to congratulate the Philippine Statistical System for its unwavering service to the country through the delivery of timely, accessible, coherent, comparable and relevant statistics, and through the work in enhancing Filipino’s awareness of the important role of statistics in national development. In celebrating the National Statistics Month and World Statistics Day, let us continue to upgrade the quality and standards of statistics in the Philippines, and instill nationwide awareness and appreciation of the value of statistics to different sector of society.

ARSENIO M. BALISACAN, PhD Secretary of Socioeconomic Planning And PSA Board Chairperson

MESSAGE

The National Statistics Month (NSM) celebrated annually since 1990 has become an effective advocacy tool that highlights the crucial role of statistics in policy formulation, planning and decision making.

We appreciate everyone’s continued interest and support through the various statistical activities that have been lined up during the month long celebration as presented in this 26th NSM calendar of activities. This year’s theme of NSM is “Pagyamanin at Gamitin ang Estadistika, Kalusugan Para sa Lahat ay Abot - Kamay Na,” to highlight the importance of improving the health sector through the generation and use of quality health statistics for evidence- based decision-making, and to underscore the role of the PSS through the DOH in production and dissemination of accurate and coherent health statistics in formulating and evaluating policies and programs on health and nutrition.

This year’s celebration is timely as the Philippine Statistical System (PSS) continues to advance as a frontrunner in upholding the role of statistics in nation-building and tracking progress through the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and now through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as well as new and emerging concerns such as data revolution and, preparations for the 2020 World Population and Housing Census Program. Indeed, the PSS has exhibited exemplary performance in upholding the vision of producing timely, coherent, comprehensible, and relevant statistics.

At the international level, the Millennium Development Goals is nearing its tail end. Substantial progress has been achieved on the MDGs, and this has been attained amidst emerging global health security threats. These emerging challenges are targeted to be solved through the discussion of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which continues to highlight the role of health and nutrition in achieving sustainable development. The United Nations, in its General Assembly held on September 26, 2015, adopted the post-2015 SDGs consisting 169 targets identified under 17 global goals. Furthermore, the UN General Assembly has endorsed the Open Working Group report in which health is one of 17 SDGs: “Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages.” Health is also closely linked to other goals such as those related to improving nutrition, water and sanitation. Moreover, 9 out of the 169 targets are health related, which include three related to the unfinished health-related MDGs, three on non- communicable diseases and injuries, one on universal access to sexual and reproductive health care services, one on Universal Health Coverage, and one on environmental pollution and contamination.

As we begin our new 15-year journey in accomplishing these goals, the value of statistics becomes more evident in monitoring country’s progress. Applying these data further introduced new perspective in policy making that caters to people’s needs. It is our responsibility to fulfil the dreams of our people.

On behalf of the Philippine Statistics Authority, it's our deepest gratitude to all our partners through the years for your unwavering support to the annual celebration of the NSM. Your unceasing commitment and service are truly admirable.

MESSAGE

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, together with the Department of Education, is pleased to join the Philippine Statistical System in the celebration of the 26th National Statistics Month (NSM) this October. We are also one with the global statistical community as we celebrate the 2nd World Statistics Day on October 20. The theme of the celebration this year, “Pagyamanin at Gamitin ang Estadistika, Kalusugan para sa Lahat ay Abot-Kamay Na,” focuses on the relevance of statistics in reshaping the general condition of the health care sector in the Philippines. Current statistics show that the health care system continues to face the challenges of inadequate hospital facilities, limited financing, and insufficient number of health care professionals. While the government continues to institute health care reforms, access of millions of Filipino households to quality and cost-efficient health care systems remains limited. In the long term, timely health care across all income classes is essential in attaining economic growth that is inclusive and broad-based. The health care sector is a very important market because health helps create wealth. The experi- ence of some economies shows that health and wealth create a virtuous cycle—better health translates to an increase in wealth, and vice versa. Rapid economic development is seend as key to improving the state of the health care sector. In turn, an improvement in health is seen to further amplify economic growth through a more productive and empowered population. This is the reason why surveillance mech- anisms based on comprehensive and timely health statistics are necessary to enable policymakers to better address health care challenges. The theme acknowledges that the availability of timely, accurate, and relevant data would enable the government to properly monitor the state of health care and appropriately channel resources to those who need it most. At the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, we recognize that access to financing improve one’s access to proper health care. We contribute to this goal by widening access to financial products and services to include the underserved and unbanked segment of society. This, together with our sus- tained efforts to promote microfinance as wells as financial and consumer education, are aimed to further spread economic opportunities across the population and help the government to institute more health care reforms. On behalf of the BSP, we thank everyone who has continued to render full support in helping to promote the importance of statistics to our economy’s development. Mabuhay tayong lahat!
