Pacific Regional Information System (PRISM)

Until recently, there was no satisfying regional solution for major users of official statistics such as government line ministries, non-governmental organisations, international organisations, educational institutions, commercial enterprises and individuals. For the first time, at the initiative of the Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC), a broad range of statistical indicators, including those for the Millennium Development Goals, will soon be available in a regional Internet-based information system that Pacific NSOs will be able to update and consult themselves. This Pacific-wide Internet-based system will provide cheaper, wider and easier dissemination of essential data from the region. The Pacific Regional Information System (PRISM), as it is called, is already under development by SPC and the database component is expected to go online in May this year.
