The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) has launched Ghana’s first compendium on Environment Statistics (ES).
This compendium was adopted in the UN Framework for the Development of Environment Statistics (FDES, 2013).
This is the first to be compiled on Environment Statistics in the country.
It will be updated on an annual basis to help policymakers understand the interlinkages within and between environment-related goals and targets.
This will help promote policy coherence and integration of the environmental dimensions of the SDGs;
The National Implementation Team (NIT), in a collaboration between Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with technical assistance from United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) prepared the conpendium.
