  1. To know each other • Self introduction (name, affiliation, an adjective) • Involved in data production and analysis? • Do you know about UN-CTS? • Do you provide country data to UN-CTS? • Do you provide country data to other international organisations? • In your office, is there a specific unit/person working full-time on data collection, analysis and dissemination?

  2. Enrico Bisogno Team Leader Crime Statistics UNODC The UN-CTS, the global data collection on crime

  4. Recent developments • ECOSOC resolution 2009/25 asked UNODC to improve UN-CTS • As a result: • Annual periodicity • Electronic format (Excel) • Annual core module + rotating modules • Collection of metadata • Improved data collection system • Enhanced data processing system • Electronic dissemination of data • Improved analysis of data

  5. The main driver • From a formal exercise of communication from countries to the United Nations to a sustainable gathering of usable data for further dissemination in user-friendly manner to facilitate global, regional and national analysis of crime trends and criminal justice systems operations
