The Youth Café is pleased to share highlights from our participation in African Statistics Day 2025, commemorated on 18 November 2025 under the leadership of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA). This annual event brings together statisticians, policymakers, development practitioners, and civil society to emphasize the crucial role of data and statistics in driving Africa’s sustainable development.

This year’s theme, “Leveraging innovations in data and statistics to promote a just, peaceful, inclusive and prosperous society for Africans”, strongly aligned with our mission to champion youth-centered, evidence-based development across the continent.
