Riyadh: Saudi Arabia’s General Authority for Statistics (GASTAT) will open registration on June 30, 2026, for the Sixth UN World Data Forum and the Second Saudi Statistics Forum. The two major events will take place in Riyadh this November.
GASTAT is organizing the global event together with the United Nations. The authority will also release videos, images, and other information through its official channels to explain the forum’s goals, important topics, and how people can register to take part.
Hosting the UN World Data Forum shows Saudi Arabia’s growing role in the world of data and statistics. It also supports the country’s Vision 2030 plan by encouraging international cooperation and building strong partnerships in data, research, and innovation.
The forum is expected to welcome experts, government officials, business leaders, researchers, and representatives from international organizations from many countries. It will give participants a chance to share ideas, learn from each other, and discuss the latest ways to improve data and statistical systems.
The UN World Data Forum is one of the world’s most important events focused on data and sustainable development. It brings together governments, universities, international organizations, and private companies to explore how better data can support smarter decisions and help achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
GASTAT has encouraged experts, researchers, organizations, and anyone interested in data and statistics to follow its official channels, as well as the United Nations’ official platforms, for registration details, event updates, and participation guidelines, which will be announced in the coming days.
