2021 Labour Market Statistics & Analysis Academy

The ILO Department of Statistics, in close collaboration with the International Training Centre of the ILO, is proud to be organizing the 2021 Labour Market Statistics and Analysis Academy, with a particular focus on the outcomes of the 19th and 20th ICLS concerning emerging trends in the world of work and the SDG monitoring framework for measuring decent work and supporting evidence-based policy-making. The main objective of the Academy is to better equip and situate national and international stakeholders in the new SDG statistical monitoring system. The Academy is designed to enhance institutional capacity for identifying, collecting, analysing and disseminating labour-market information and other indicators related to decent work. Moreover, the Academy emphasizes the 20th ICLS Resolution on the statistics of work relationships as an important pillar for measuring progress towards the 2030 agenda, particularly Goal 8 on promoting inclusive and sustainable growth, employment and decent work for all.
