2023 Expert Meeting on Dissemination and Communication of Statistics

In today's rapidly changing world, statistical organisations are facing increasingly complex challenges in effectively disseminating and communicating data. With the continuous emergence of new technologies and platforms, the growing need to provide the right data product to the right people in a timelier manner as well as the rising competition from private data providers, statistical organisations must adapt quickly to continue serving their critical role as providers of official statistics that are fundamental to informed decision-making in society.

The Expert Meeting on Dissemination and Communication of Statistics aims to bring together experts from around the world to exchange their experiences and lessons learned from these challenges. The target audience of the expert meeting includes senior and middle-level managers responsible for data dissemination and communication, across all statistical domains.

The programme of the expert meeting will consist of the following substantive sessions:

• Session 1: Building trust and brand
