New York, Friday

The United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD) will hold a Working Session
on Emerging Trends and Best Practices in Data Dissemination on Friday
3 March 2006 . The working session will discuss the emerging trends in
data dissemination policies and practices, approaches in promoting greater
access to statistical information, and the means to enhance utilization
and understanding of statistical data.
The meeting will coincide with the launch of UNSD’s project on “Statistics
as Public Goods”, which aims to promote public access to UN data
resources and to establish best practices in the dissemination of official
statistics. The project is made possible as a result of the support of
the Swedish
International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA). The
project will be implemented by UNSD in close collaboration with the Gapminder
Foundation.
