United Nations Statistical Commission

The United Nations Statistical Commission is a key body within the UN that focuses on improving global statistics. It brings together member countries to develop and maintain international standards for collecting and sharing data, such as economic, social, and environmental information. This helps ensure statistics are accurate, comparable, and reliable, which is crucial for informed policymaking and measuring progress towards global goals, like the Sustainable Development Goals. The Commission also promotes collaboration among national statistical offices to enhance data quality and capacity worldwide.
