Welcome to the ISLP

The International Statistical Literacy Project (ISLP) is a project initiated by the International Association for Statistical Education (IASE), which is the education section of the International Statistical Institute (ISI).

The main objective of the ISLP is to contribute to promoting statistical literacy across the world, among young and adults, in all walks of life. To this end, we provide an online repository of international resources and news in Statistical Literacy, international activities to promote the resources and the individuals and institutions behind them, and outreach activities to increase awareness.

Contact ISLP Coordination by e-mail (islp.coordination@gmail.com) if you have any questions.
