On 28 March 2013 Congress of Local Authorities in Moldova in cooperation with UNICEF Moldova organized a round table "The need in statistical data to assess the impact of decentralization on the LPA". The aim of the round table was to present the results of the policy study with the same title, which was aimed at the analysis of the situation and drawing up proposals for improving the process of data collection and monitoring within the Small Area Deprivation Indicators (SADI) database, as well as their dissemination process through DevInfo software platform.

At the event participated representatives of local public authorities of level one and two, data providers and users, representatives of ministries, donors, experts and other relevant actors.   

This roundtable is part of the project initiated by UNICEF together with CALM, which aims to promote a permanent dialogue, a close link between policies developed at central level and how they are implemented locally. The project also seeks to assess the implications of these reforms on beneficiaries in terms of access and quality.
