1 Presented by: Lourdes Escobedo, WAVES Guatemala Date: June 1 st, 2016 NCA in Guatemala: Eight lessons from previous experiences

2 Content How has our past experience with NCA affected how we approached WAVES? What systems are we putting place? What two key recommendations can we give to other countries? 2

3 Institutional arrangements Lessons learned A public- academic alliance. Made possible the elabora-on of a complete set of accounts for But governmental par-cipa-on was narrow and accounts were made in a rather self sufficient way. CICA. Inter- ins-tu-onal CommiWee for NCA which was the model of communica-ons among ins-tu-ons not always opera-ng. Technical commiiees. Revised the work developed by the University and the ins-tu-ons but they were not official. Systems in place for WAVES Keep this alliance but with an increased par-cipa-on of governmental offices through joint NCA elabora-on. CDN: Na-onal Steering CommiWee that guides, facilitates, and makes strategic decisions. Integrated by high- level authori-es coordinated by Planning Secretariat, including the Ministry of Finance, Central Bank, Na-onal Sta-s-cs Ins-tute, and Ministry of Environment. The commiwee operates through formal agreements, assigning roles and guiding its opera-on. OCSE Ambiente: Sta-s-cal coordina-ng body with a thema-c emphasis that connect data users and producers. Environmental OCSE will be strengthened. 3

4 Capacity building and data sharing/ management Lessons learned Systems in place for WAVES 4 5 Training. Capacity building through trainings and talks with less emphasis on the links NCA and policy- making. Central framework accounts. Important progress in resource accounts that are linked to na-onal accounts, but lacking the spa-al informa-on. Professional development. A training plan with university accredita-on to build ins-tu-onal capaci-es and enroll and mo-vate young professionals. Make informanon spanally explicit. Explore op-ons without missing the cri-cal link with na-onal accounts. 4

5 NCA use and involved stakeholders 6 Lessons learned Isolated policy impact. There were policy impacts from the accounts but limited (e.g. Forests) Systems in place for WAVES Search for targeted impacts. Clarity in the entry points. For now there is a decision on focusing in issues related to food security and climate change and related issues, all connected to the Na-onal Development Plan and the current government agenda Limited stakeholders involved. Increase number and parncipanon of strategic partners and stakeholders. Involve more key stakeholders in private sector, NGOs, civil society, and local governments. 8 Policy- making applicanons. There were few exercises with product input matrixes and incipient macroeconomic models. Change the emphasis and focus in two key aspects: 1. Interpreta-on for indicators use and its applica-on in the policy- making cycle 2. Modeling and crea-ng scenarios for policy- making 5

6 Two recommendanons 1. Transparent processes, with detailed work plan with defined products and stakeholders roles. 2. Involve academia to add credibility, ins-tu-onal stability, and technical development. 6
