Technical Subgroup 2:
Methodological Research and
Guidance Development
The Technical Subgroup 2 brings members together to advance EGRISS’ methodological goals and ensure relevant guidance is available to support countries to implement the International Recommendations on Refugee, IDPs and Statelessness Statics (IRRS, IRIS and IROSS). Within the framework of the group’s global workplan, members work in small Task Teams to develop collective outputs.
The subgroup aims to identify and research any methodological gaps that hinder the direct application of the IRRS/IRIS/IROSS in statistical production (including through the development of methodological research papers) and ensure the continued up-to-dateness, useability and relevance of the EGRISS Compilers Manual (CM).
