Note that the outcome document under discussion for the UN Financing For
Kenya has recognized the need to address gaps in data production, openness
and use and has fully embraced the opportunities of the data revolution. In this regard,
Kenya as a nation will do the following:
5.
First, we take note that a draft report on the African Data Consensus has been
produced which offers a set of principles and actions that we can adopt at national level.
6.
Second, we will lend our energies to other African Governments, the African
Union Commission (AUC) and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa
(UNECA) in championing the adoption of this important document as a guide to our
collective action as a Continent at the next African Union Summit.
7.
Third, I confirm that Kenya will be joining the Global Open Data for Agriculture
and Nutrition which works to support efforts to make agricultural and nutritionally relevant
data available, accessible, and usable for application in our country and we will be
working on a National Agricultural Transformation Plan to support our GODAN
membership.
8.
Fourth, to realize these commitments, H.E. the Deputy President of Kenya has
cohesive. I would therefore like to congratulate the Governments of the United States,
Canada, Mexico, Belgium, United Kingdom, Senegal and UNECA as co-champions in
creating an inclusive multilateral Global partnership. We are also elated to see the
inclusion of private sector, academia, civil society, local communities and others in this
conversation in order to tackles the informational aspects of development decisionmaking in a coordinated way.
Thank You
