IWSM is one of the major activities of the Statistical Modelling Society, founded with the purpose of promoting and encouraging statistical modelling in its widest sense. The workshop aims to involve both academic and professional statisticians and data analysts with a particular focus on real data problems which involve an element of novel statistical modelling, or novel model application.<o:p></o:p> Papers focusing on applications with important substantive implications as well as methodological issues are welcome. Submissions by students and young researchers are particularly encouraged. All the accepted papers will be included in the Proceedings of the Workshop.<o:p></o:p> <span lang="EN-US" style="COLOR: #1f497d; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri;
