Held on 25-26 March 2019 in Nouakchott, Mauritania, the two-day workshop brought together representatives of governmental institutions and non-governmental organizations to discuss the first draft of the national report and identify gaps in and sources of needed data and information. Participants also agreed on the next steps of the reporting process prior to the national review’s submission to ESCWA on the defined date.
