About ISCI

The ISCI offers an organized professional home to support and foster collaboration, integrate findings, and disseminate research for developing and using indicators and measuring the status of child and adolescent well-being at the local, national, regional, and international levels. Researchers, data users, child advocates, and policymakers have made considerable advances in developing and using child indicators to measure child and adolescent well-being.

ISCI provides an organizing structure that brings together worldwide experts who:

  • Contribute to the well-being of all children;
  • Develop and refine standards;
  • Improve data resources and infrastructure;
  • Foster collaborative research and projects;
  • Embrace diverse methodological approaches;
  • Enhance dissemination of information on the status of children;
  • Bridge the gap between research findingings and policy and practice; and,
  • Enhance the capacity of the field in countries that are in the initial stages of producing child well-being indicators.

ISCI 2026's Theme

Thriving in Context: Child Wellbeing Across Environments

The theme for the 2026 conference, ‘Thriving in Context: Child Wellbeing Across Environments,’ emphasizes the importance of considering diverse settings in the assessment of child well-being. This theme highlights the need to understand how different environments—social, cultural, economic, political, and geographical—affect the development and well-being of children. By focusing on contexts, we aim to foster discussions that lead to more nuanced and effective strategies for improving child well-being globally.
