On Wednesday 19 February, the GSS Presentation and Dissemination Symposium 2020 was hosted at etc. venues County Hall.

The symposium, which brings together the statistical community to learn from each other and improve, was opened by Julie Stanborough, Chair of the Presentation and Dissemination Committee. We heard from keynote speakers in the morning including the National Statistician, Sir Ian Diamond, and a talk on data journalism by a senior journalist in the BBC Shared Data Unit. This was followed by parallel bitesize training sessions and a networking lunch.

In the afternoon, there was an interactive session on peer reviews and a chance to find out about the exciting work happening across government including Connected Open Government Statistics (COGS), the Scottish Household Survey and the future of statistical bulletins.

The full symposium slide pack (PPT, 17MB) is now available.
