On 9 and 10 November, ESCWA organized a capacity-building workshop for stakeholders from the Arab region contributing to the national digital development reports (NDDRs) for 2021-2022.
 
The workshop was built on lessons learnt through the challenges faced during the initial 2019 NDDRs, to which 10 Arab countries had contributed.
