SUMMARY
UIS (The UNESCO Institute for Statistics) releases annual data and key findings on themes that range from education and literacy to science, technology and innovation, culture, and communication and information. The UIS was established in 1999 to meet the growing need for reliable and policy-relevant data. The Institute serves Member States, UNESCO and the UN system, as well as a range of intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations, research institutes and universities.
The data team uses the UIS database for data on education, series including, but not limited to, SeriesEdEnrollPrivate%Lower2ndaryTotal, SeriesEdExpPri%EducTot, SeriesEdExpSecUppr%GDPPC, and SeriesEdPriEnrollHeadcountMal.
