The LISA 2020 Global Network is a structured community of statistics and data science collaboration laboratories ("stat labs") and individuals in developing countries. The 35 stat labs in the network work together to train the next generation of collaborative statisticians and data scientists; collaborate at the intersections of data-driven development with researchers, data producers, and decision-makers to make a positive impact on society; and teach short courses and workshops to improve statistical skills and data literacy widely. In this invited poster we present lessons learned from Brazil, Africa, South Asia, and Indonesia about creating and sustaining stat labs to transform evidence into action for the benefit of society.
