 Within the framework of its Statistical Capacity Building (StatCaB) Programme, SESRIC organised a Training Course on “Migration and Refugee Statistics” with the participation of 19 experts from the National Statistical Offices (NSOs) and other relevant national institutions of 11 Arabic-speaking OIC countries through an online video conferencing platform.
Mrs. Eman Bani Mfarej, Head of Statistical Analysis Division at the Department of Statistics (DoS) of Jordan, provided the course.
The course covered the following topics:
-
Migration and Asylum
-
Concepts and Basics of Population Statistics
-
Migration and Asylum Statistical Data Analysis
-
Global Trends of Migration and Asylum
-
Migration and Asylum Challenges and Policies
-
Modern Technologies and Statistics in Migration and Asylum
-

The StatCaB Programme was initiated in early 2007 as the flagship capacity development programme of SESRIC. Within the framework of the StatCaB Programme, the Centre collects information from the NSOs of OIC member countries through the biennial StatCaB Questionnaire, assesses their statistical training needs and capacities, matches these needs and capacities, and organises statistical capacity development activities between the beneficiary and provider countries.
