The Jecas gathering, held under the theme "The evaluation of public policies and other challenges of official statistics for the coming years," convened officials responsible for official statistics to share experiences and insights on sector challenges. An Andorran delegation joined institutions and professionals for scientific and technical exchanges amid the influence of emerging technologies and the growing need for dependable data in public decision-making.

This involvement reflects the department's commitment to stronger institutional partnerships and close monitoring of innovations in official statistics. The government continues to prioritise improvements in the quality, dissemination, and utility of public statistical information.
