First International Statistical Congress information
Portrait of Adolphe Quetelet, Belgian astronomer and statistician who aided in the founding of the Congress.
The First International Statistical Congress was held on September 19, 1853 in Brussels, Belgium, with twenty-six countries in attendance.[1] It was principally organised by Belgian astronomer and statistician Adolphe Quetelet, who envisioned a standardisation of European units of measurement to allow for collaborative research to be done between nations. The International Statistical Congress was therefore designed to create tentative guidelines for the process of unifying measurement in statistical research, and it was also aimed to establish leadership and regulations for future congresses.[2] Although the First Congress was followed by seven further sessions across Europe between 1853 and 1876, it was unsuccessful in its initial goals to standardise all measurements across nations, as it occurred at a time when international conferences failed to overcome national interests.[3]
