Global Calendar of Statistical Events

Organizer(s): ISI

Description: The ISI World Statistics Congresses (WSC) take place once every two years in different countries. Though organized by the ISI, we work closely with the country’s National Statistics Office and Society. The WSCs and their associated events are the highpoint of activities of the ISI where all our Associations, Committees, members and participants involved in statistics worldwide come together to participate in the many different activities and highlights of the WSC for an entire week and associated activities immediately before or after this week. Each WSC has a rich Scientific Programme that include invited paper sessions (IPS) and contributed paper/poster sessions (CPS). A full Administrative Programme includes meetings of the Executive Committees, Councils, General Assemblies and Committees of the ISI and the Associations, and special interest meetings relevant to the particular WSC. The Social Programme makes the WSC an event to remember and gives participants a flavour of the culture of the host country. The Social Programme also includes daytime activities for accompanying persons. Associated with the WSC are Satellite Meetings and Short Courses of the ISI and the Associations. These take place in or close to the host city before and after the main WSC week and combine with the WSC to provide an overall outstanding international statistical event which is memorable in every way.

Description: (Newsletter: CRVS Insight February (2) 2020) The Centre of Excellence for CRVS Systems, the United Nations Population Fund, and Open Data Watch are co-organizing a global conference on Connecting Vital Events Registration and Gender Equality (ConVERGE). Bringing together policy and technical experts, government representatives, academics, youth, and donor organizations, this two day event aims to move beyond discussions on the importance of CRVS systems for women and children, and towards securing commitment to find solutions and take action. The objective is to foster the link between two agendas critical for the achievement of the SDGs, namely Vital Events Registration and Gender Equality. The event will take place on the 25th and 26th of February at the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) in Ottawa, Canada. It will also be webcasted live in English and French, allowing online participants to engage directly in the conference in Q&A sessions. You can go to the events page for more detail and an up-to-date program.
