Explanatory Note on the Events Calendars: The overall objective of the African and Asian calendars is to help harmonise the efforts of technical and financial partners supporting statistics by providing information on relevant meetings. The intention is to optimise the preparation and organisation of meetings as well as to avoid possible duplication of efforts and bunching-up of meetings. The calendar could enable national statistical directors to better anticipate their travel and thereby make the most efficient use of their time. The technical and financial partners could also anticipate their participation in a meeting and enjoy a greater visibility of their upcoming interventions. More than just a calendar, it is a tool for co-ordination of stakeholders in statistical development. This calendar will focus on not only regional and subregional events but also international events in which statistical development plays a major role. The inclusion of national events could be envisioned in future updates of the calendar. Your remarks, comments, and notes are of course welcome! Please send your contributions to contact@paris21.org • The calendar is sorted by month. It is updated at the end of every week with information that technical and financial partners regularly provide to us. • The “Date” field indicates the start and end dates of the event. When an event is scheduled but the date is not yet fixed, the event is indicated at the beginning of the month (or quarter) with the annotation To Be Defined (TBD).
• The “Event” field contains the official title of the event. This text is clickable if a website for the event is available.
• The “Organiser” field indicates the name of the event organiser. A link will bring the user to that organiser’s site.
• The “Geographical coverage” field indicates the geographical reach of the event; that is, what level of country grouping is concerned — subregional (e.g., ECOWAS or ASEAN countries); regional (e.g., all African or all Asian countries); or international (e.g., an international meeting in which statistical development is explicitly mentioned).
