The Global Forum for Geography and Statistics (GFGS), the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) have joined forces to create a series of webinars or "coffee talks" to present, share and discuss emerging ideas and good practices relating to geospatial and statistical information.

They are typically one hour long, and each one focuses on a specific theme. They generally include two presentations on the chosen theme, with plenty of time left for discussion. Participation is open to anyone working with geospatial and statistical information.

In May 2020, GFGS and UNECE also organised a Webinar on Geo-statistical Responses to the COVID-19 Crisis
