Mrs. Ibtihel Bouchoucha, Statistician at Demographic and Social Statistics Department of the National Institute of Statistics (INS) of Tunisia, conducted the course and covered the following topics:

• Introduction to SDGs with a focus on SDG 4

The StatCaB Programme was initiated in early 2007. It is the flagship capacity development programme of the SESRIC. Within its framework, the Centre collects information from the NSOs of OIC member countries through the biennial StatCaB questionnaire, assesses their needs and capacities, matches these needs and capacities, and organizes statistical capacity development activities between the beneficiary and provide countries.
