“Money doesn’t necessarily make happy. But a sound financial basis for the ISI provides the much needed financial stability and sustainability in moving forward. It also provides us with the opportunity to keep conference fees at acceptable levels, thereby providing support for people with less financial resources. It matters that everyone can take part in our conferences, and thus participate in the worldwide exchange of statistical knowledge and expertise, including innovative methods and tools, to compile high-quality statistics which are an invaluable service to our society at large.”
