Description: After extensive consultations, the final draft of the Statistical Framework was submitted to the fifty-fourth session of the UN Statistical Commission in early 2023. The Commission welcomed it as a statistically robust framework to measure the phenomenon of corruption. It also encouraged UNODC to provide technical support to implement the framework, as necessary and subject to the availability of resources, and invited national statistical offices to take an active role and collaborate with other relevant national institutions, civil society and academia in the implementation of the statistical framework for measuring corruption. In this context, the Praia City Group, the National Institute of Statistics and Geography of Mexico (INEGI) and UNODC, supported by the UNODC-INEGI Center of Excellence in Statistical Information on Government, Crime, Victimization and Justice organizes this webinar to present the framework and discuss experiences and challenges to implement it.
