Webinar "Data, Innovation, and Statistical Production during the COVID-19 Pandemic"

PORTUGUESE VERSION



The data collection for official statistics, which before the COVID-19 pandemic was primarily conducted in person, had to adapt to a new dynamic imposed by the current social distancing. This webinar discussed the methodological challenges and solutions found to continue this work.

The event, co-organized by the Regional Center for Studies on the Development of the Information Society (Cetic.br) of the Brazilian Network Information Center (NIC.br) and the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), took place on October 15.

The webinar "Data, Innovation, and Statistical Production during the COVID-19 Pandemic" was broadcast live on the NIC.br YouTube channel with simultaneous translation into Spanish (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6_Up7r-xBM) and Portuguese (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsHwUpXyct4).
