The Capacity Building Workshop on “Data Ethics, Governance, and Quality in a Changing Data Ecosystem” for countries in the Asia-Pacific region will take place from 14 to 16 July 2025, in Greater Noida, Delhi-NCR, India. The workshop targets Chief Statisticians and senior statisticians and is jointly organized by the United Nations Statistical Institute for Asia and the Pacific (SIAP) and the United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD), in cooperation with the National Statistical Systems Training Academy (NSSTA), Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI), Government of India.
This workshop aims to strengthen the capacity of national statistical systems in countries of the Asia-Pacific region to adapt to the rapidly changing data ecosystem. Countries of the Asia region face unique challenges in managing their national data ecosystems, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, which highlighted the need for resilient, adaptive, and high-quality statistical systems that provide timely and disaggregated data.
After the welcome address and opening remarks, followed by a preliminary session to set the context of the event, the workshop will proceed with four key segments.
Throughout the workshop, participants will engage in interactive breakout sessions and group discussions, providing a platform to share experiences, challenges, and solutions related to their own national contexts. The workshop will culminate in two concluding sessions organized as group and panel discussions, which will summarize key insights and recommendations and propose a way forward.
With the combined efforts of UNSD, SIAP, and MoSPI, this workshop will foster collaboration and knowledge-sharing among senior statisticians and experts in the region. The goal is to ensure that countries of the Asia-Pacific region are equipped to modernize their statistical systems and address the emerging challenges posed by an increasingly complex data ecosystem.
