With its international focus, it has been a reliable source of comparable statistics and economic and social data for more than 50 years. In addition to data collection, the OECD monitors trends, analyzes and forecasts economic developments, and researches social changes or evolving patterns in trade, environment, agriculture, technology, taxation and more.
Information will also be available on OECD’s undergraduate Student Ambassador Program. Light refreshments will be provided.
