3. Methods for data compilation, validation and dissemination

Data is compiled at different levels. The smallest unit that compiles data is Woreda, followed by zone levels and later regional levels. The highest level for data compilation is at national level. The data compiled is validated by the planning department at each level. Dissemination is upon request by users that can be through photo coping of the source document. Some times data is made available through sales of the source document.
