The event will take place in Pisa at the Centro Congressi ‘Le Benedettine’. The livestream will be available on the EMOS YouTube channel. The event is hosted by Eurostat in collaboration with the Department of Economics and Management of the University of Pisa and is addressed to all interested statistics students, educators and professionals.
