MDG Home

In the Ilocos Region, only 39 indicators out of the 48 indicators identified by the international experts to be used in the attainment of the MDG goals, were adopted. These were identified by a pool of experts from the Regional Development Council I - Task Force on MDG. To ensure the availability of the indicators, a data monitoring system on the MDG indicators was established and approved by the Regional Statistical Coordination Committee (RSCC) through Resolution No. 11, s. 2005, "Approving the Data Reporting System for the Monitoring of the MDG Indicators". The indicators were stored in the DevInfo database located at the NSCB Regional Division I office which maintains the regional database.
