Abstract
“A couple of years ago, 500 million Africans were said to have no identification. If we can reduce that to zero, that would be achieving my vision. To do that you need integrated systems,” says Chinganya. To help countries build their CRVS systems, the UN Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) and its partners launched the Civil Registration and Vital Statistics Systems Improvement Framework (April, 2021). Reform will need stronger integration and collaboration between civil registration systems and national statistical offices. The bulletin provides a profile of leadership in Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) systems.
