Summary of Belize's Statistical Needs Assessment

• Purpose and Progress: The Statistical Institute of Belize (SIB) and the World Bank conducted this assessment to improve the national statistical system (NSS) for data-driven decision-making. Belize shows significant progress, with an overall SPI score of 65.1 in 2023, up from 47.7 in 2016, reflecting enhancements in data services and other areas.

• Key Strengths: Humans resources are nearly fully utilized, and data producers like the SIB handle essential censuses, surveys, and labor data well. Innovations in using administrative data for poverty estimates and plans for health surveys aim to enhance service delivery.

• Major Challenges: Persistent gaps include poor data infrastructure, lack of administrative data integration (e.g., no standardized collection or digitization), and limited coordination across statistical agencies. Dissemination gaps mean fewer analysis tools and public data availability for areas like business and government finances.

• Priority Actions: Strengthen coordination through the National Strategy for the Development of Statistics (NSDS) to improve data integration with policy indicators. Focus on technology for data collection and dissemination, resource mobilization, and human resource development to address bottlenecks.

• Conclusions: SIB has strong capacity but must expand roles in coordination, data use, and capacity-building. Overall, Belize needs strategic investments to align with regional data standards and boost data-driven policymaking.
