I warmly invite you to join the global celebration of World Statistics Day on 20 October 2025. Celebrated every five years, this day recognizes the vital role of official statistics in informing decisions at all levels — from governments to individuals. This year’s theme, “Quality statistics and data for everyone,” reflects our shared commitment to producing and sharing high-quality, timely, and trusted data. At the heart of this mission are the national statistical offices. You are the backbone of our statistical systems — upholding professional standards, ensuring data quality, and delivering evidence that informs national and global action. You translate complex realities into meaningful numbers, provide continuity amid change, and safeguard the integrity of data. Since the endorsement of the Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics by the United Nations General Assembly in 2014, our community has made great strides in upholding relevance, impartiality, scientific rigour, and transparency. These principles, along with legal frameworks and quality assurance systems, underpin the integrity of official statistics. Alongside you, we, too, will be observing World Statistics Day.
Mr. Shantanu Mukherjee .Acting Director, Statistics Division Department of Economic and Social Affairs.
