Data is the fuel that powers progress across all SDGs. Stronger data systems are foundational to revolutionizing decision making, accelerating digital transformation and driving new economic opportunities. Investments to strengthen national data systems have been shown to pay a ¡®dividend¡¯ of $32 for every $1 invested. Despite the substantial returns, member states have not been able to capitalize on this dividend because of limited political prioritization; fragmentation; inadequate and siloed investment; and lack of capacity. The Data Dividend High Impact Initiative (HII) seeks to reverse this trend by launching national data partnerships that align activities behind priority goals, implementing harmonized approaches for funding data systems, and refocusing data commitments towards 2030.
