Description of the Platform

The UN Regional Collaboration Platform (RCP) for Arab States Data & Policy Support Hub is a network of interconnected components that work together to capture, process, produce and use data to support decision-making and drive sustainable development in the Arab Region. The tool brings together data from key data producers in the region (UN, member States, and key international partners), on the basis of sound data governance mechanisms, and contextualizes this data and information in a way that facilitates the creation and sharing of high-quality digital policy support products by leveraging the latest developments in artificial intelligence, geospatial, and big data technologies to provide policymakers in the region with innovative decision-support tools and data analytical capabilities for evidence-based policymaking in the region.
