The European Statistics Competition 2023 has ended. The sixth edition of this statistical literacy contest was attended by over 19 thousand students from 19 countries. The Competition was held in two rounds: national and European. After a challenging national phase, the winning teams from each participating country participated in the European final where they had the assignment to make short videos about well-being based on official statistics.
