“At a time when social media are flooded with figures, it is more important than ever to be able to distinguish truth from lies. Educating young people to interpret data critically is therefore essential. Statbel is committed to this: promoting informed citizenship, where data are used to understand, not to confuse”, says Marie Vandresse, Director-General of Statbel.

With no fewer than 60 schools sending 320 different teams, the seventh edition of the Statistics Competition got off to a record-breaking start. 154 teams survived the first round, in which we tested their knowledge of statistical concepts, analytical skills and competences to look up information. They had the opportunity to make a video on the topic “Statistical portrait: This is who we are, the Belgians”. In this test, we assess the competences to communicate statistics and the creativity in making the video. 

More than 70 teams submitted valid videos. These 70 videos are now being assessed by a team of communication experts and statisticians. The 20 best videos from this pre-selection will compete for a jury award and have a chance to win a Public Choice Award. You can vote for the latter from 17 March via this website.
