The UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) and l'Observatoire de la culture et des communications du Quebec (OCCQ) will be co-hosting a culture symposium held in Montreal entitled "Statistics in the Wake of Challenges Posed by Cultural Diversity in a Globalization Context". In order to reach a wider audience and receive feedback from experts not attending, the entire symposium may be viewed live via our internet site. On behalf of both the symposium scientific and organizing committee, we invite you to view the sessions (or if you are attending the symposium, to inform any relevant colleagues who may wish to view). The link for live web-casting can be found at the symposium website.
