DATA. CAPACITY. PLANNING. DEVELOPMENT.
Strengthening grassroots planning requires more than good policies — it requires reliable data and the institutional capacity to put that data to work.
The Lagos State Government, through the Ministry of Economic Planning and Budget, convened Heads of Planning, Research and Statistics from the 20 LGAs and 37 LCDAs for a capacity-building engagement focused on strengthening data generation, management and utilisation.
Through technical sessions, knowledge sharing and practical discussions, participants explored ways to improve the quality and use of data for better planning, budgeting, policy formulation and service delivery.
Building stronger institutions for a more data-driven Lagos.
