The seminar on “Innovations in Official Statistics” is part of a series of one-day high level seminars dedicated to topics of great relevance for the global statistical community, which UNSD has been organizing for some years now on the Friday before the Statistical Commission session.

The seminar will be organized around 3 panel discussions focusing on the following specific themes: “Innovation in governance”, “Innovation in Data Collection and Management” and “Innovation in Data Dissemination. All participants of the forthcoming Statistical Commission session are cordially invited. An inter-active discussion is expected.
