As reported by the IISD, the UN Statistical Commission (UNSC) has confirmed that it will provide statistical support for the elaboration of the post-2015 development agenda and its measurement, in a letter responding to a request for assistance from the Co-Facilitators for intergovernmental negotiations on the post-2015 development agenda, David Donoghue and Macharia Kamau.
In their letter of 19 December 2014 to Gabriella Vukovich, Acting Chair of UNSC, the Co-Facilitators note that, in the course of the intergovernmental consultations, some Member States underlined the need for an effective framework of targets and indicators that are specific and measurable, and which do not lower the level of ambition as expressed in existing international commitments, standards and agreements.
