VNR lab 8: Evidence-based VNRs in the time of COVID-19 Pandemic

Thursday, 9 July 2020 | 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm EDT 

We invite you to join the VNR Lab organized by the UN Statistics Division as an official virtual event of the High-level Political Forum (HLPF).

This VNR lab aims to bring together national statisticians and policy makers from countries who have recently prepared the VNRs: Austria, Kyrgyzstan, Liberia and Uganda. They will take the opportunity to discuss their countries’ responses to the COVID-19 crisis in term of data collection for policy making in general and the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals more specifically, particularly linking it to their work on their VNRs.
