                  3.  Result
                      The  private-public  partnership  model  proves  to  be  a  good  solution  to
                  support  the  global  statistical  system  in  meeting  the  challenges  of  Agenda
                  2030.  Technical  assistance  can  successfully  be  supported  through  PPPs  to
                  achieve  sustainable  results.  The  Laos  experience  has  provided  us  with  the
                  following findings on how support for capacity development can or should be
                  structured:
                      •  Let  the  NSO  take  the  ownership  of  their  capacity  development
                         initiative.
                      •  Focus on the needs and priorities of the organisation as a whole.
                      •  Engage  stakeholders  in  the  capacity  development  and  change
                         management processes.
                      •  Cultivate adequate political support and preserve autonomy.
                      •  Establish  an  environment  that  is  conducive  to  learning  and  change
                         from the outset.
