The meeting took place at Galpão da Cidadania, Gamboa neighborhood, as part of the G20 actions and events in Rio de Janeiro, and follows a meeting between Pochmann and Rousseff held in Shanghai in September last year, with the objective of strengthening partnerships between the IBGE and the BRICS bank, mainly regarding the cooperative development of statistics for the group of member countries.
