Depth of the food deficit (kilocalories per person per day)

The depth of the food deficit indicates how many calories would be needed to lift the undernourished from their status, everything else being constant. The average intensity of food deprivation of the undernourished, estimated as the difference between the average dietary energy requirement and the average dietary energy consumption of the undernourished population (food-deprived), is multiplied by the number of undernourished to provide an estimate of the total food deficit in the country, which is then normalized by the total population.

Food and Agriculture Organization, Food Security Statistics.


Depth of hunger (kilocalories per person per day)

Depth of hunger or the intensity of food deprivation, indicates how much food-deprived people fall short of minimum food needs in terms of dietary energy. The food deficit, in kilocalories per person per day, is measured by comparing the average amount of dietary energy that undernourished people get from the foods they eat with the minimum amount of dietary energy they need to maintain body weight and undertake light activity. The depth of hunger is low when it is less than 200 kilocalories per person per day, and high when it is higher than 300 kilocalories per person per day.

Unmet need for family planning (for limiting) (% of married women): Q1 (lowest)

Unmet need for family planning: Percentage of currently married women with unmet need for family planning for spacing, for limiting, and the sum of these two (total). Unmet need for spacing includes pregnant women whose pregnancy was mistimed, amenorrheic women who are not using family planning and whose last birth was mistimed, and fecund women who are neither pregnant nor amenorrheic and who are not using any method of family planning and say they want to wait 2 or more years for their next birth. Also included in unmet need for spacing are fecund women who are not using any method of family planning and say they are unsure whether they want another child or who want another child but are unsure when to have the birth unless they say it would not be a problem if they discovered they were pregnant in the next few weeks. Unmet need for limiting refers to pregnant women whose pregnancy was unwanted, amenorrheic women whose last child was unwanted, and fecund women who are neither pregnant nor amenorrheic and who are not using any method of family planning and who want no more children. Excluded from the unmet need category are pregnant and amenorrheic women who became pregnant while using a method (these women are in need of a better method of contraception).

Population & Housing census (Availability score over 20 years)

Population censuses collect data on the size, distribution and composition of population and information on a broad range of social and economic characteristics of the population.  It also provides sampling frames for household and other surveys.  Housing censuses provide information on the supply of housing units, the structural characteristics and facilities, and health and the development of normal family living conditions.  Data obtained as part of the population census, including data on homeless persons, are often used in the presentation and analysis of the results of the housing census.  It is recommended that population and housing censuses be conducted at least every 10 years.


Agriculture census (Availability score over 20 years)

Agriculture censuses collect information on agricultural activities, such as size of holding, land tenure, land use, employment and production, and provide basic structural data and sampling frames for agricultural surveys.  Censuses of agriculture normally involves collecting key structural data by complete enumeration of all agricultural holdings, in combination with more detailed structural data using sampling methods.  It is recommended that agricultural censuses be conducted at least every 10 years.


Business/establishment census (Availability score over 20 years)

Business/establishment censuses provide valuable information on all economic activities, number of employed and size of establishments in the economy.  Business Register information is establishment-based and includes business location, organization type (e.g. subsidiary or parent), industry classification, and operating data (e.g., receipts and employment).


Household Survey on income, etc  (Availability score over 10 years)

These surveys collect data on household income (including income in kind), consumption and expenditure.  They typically include income, expenditure, and consumption surveys, household budget surveys, integrated surveys.  It is recommended that surveys on income and expenditure be conducted at least every 3 to 5 years.


Agriculture survey (Availability score over 10 years)

Agricultural surveys refer to surveys of agricultural holdings based on the sampling frames established by the agricultural census.  These are surveys on agricultural land, production, crops and livestock, aquaculture, labor and cost, and time use.  Some issues, such as gender and food security, are of interest to most agriculture surveys.


Labor Force Survey (Availability score over 10 years)

Labor force survey is a standard household-based survey of work-related statistics at the national and sub-national employment or unemployment levels, rates or trends.  The surveys also provide the characteristics of the employed or unemployed, including labor force status by age or gender, breakdowns between employees and the self-employed, public versus private sector employment, multiple job-holding, hiring, job creation, and duration of unemployment.


Health/Demographic survey (Availability score over 10 years)

Legislation Indicator based on PARIS21 indicators on SDG 17.18.2

Based on PARIS21 indicators on SDG 17.18.2 (national statistical legislation compliance with UN Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics), existence of National Statistical Council, national statistical strategy generation, national statistical plan. Also include some other legislative aspects that foster good use of statistics eg freedom of information, privacy/transparency, good governance (eg free and fair elections).


System of national accounts in use

The national accounts data are compiled using the concepts, definitions, framework, and methodology of the System of National Account 2008 (SNA2008) or European System of National and Regional Accounts (ESA 2010).  The manual has evolved to meet the changing economic structure, to follow systematic accounting and ensure international compatibility.


Business process

The Generic Statistical Business Process Model (GSBPM) aims to describe statistics production in a general and process-oriented way.  It is used both within and between statistical offices as a common basis for work with statistics production in different ways, such as quality, efficiency, standardization, and process-orientation.  It is used for all types of surveys, and "business" is not related to "business statistics" but refers to the statistical office, simply expressed.


National Accounts base year

National accounts base year is the year used as the base period for constant price calculations in the country’s national accounts.  It is recommended that the base year of constant price estimates be changed periodically to reflect changes in economic structure and relative prices.


Classification of national industry

The industrial production data are compiled using the International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC) Rev.4 and Statistical Classification of Economic Activities in the European Community (NACE) Rev.2.  ISIC Rev.4 is a standard classification of economic activities arranged so that entities can be classified per the activity they carry out using criteria such as input, output and use of the products produced, more emphasis has been given to the character of the production process in defining and delineating ISIC classes for international comparability.  The manual and classification have changed to cover the complete scope of industrial production, employment, and GDP and other statistical areas.


CPI base year

Consumer Price Index serves as indicators of inflation and reflects changes in the cost of acquiring a fixed basket of goods and services by the average consumer.  Weights are usually derived from consumer expenditure surveys and the CPI base year refers to the year the weights were derived.  It is recommended that the base year be changed periodically to reflect changes in expenditure structure.


Classification of household consumption

Classification of Individual Consumption According to Purpose (COICOP) is used in household budget surveys, consumer price indices and international comparisons of gross domestic product (GDP) and its component expenditures.  Although COICOP is not strictly linked to any particular model of consumer behavior, the classification is designed to broadly reflect differences in income elasticities.  It is an integral part of the SNA1993 and more detailed subdivision of the classes provide comparability between countries and between statistics in these different areas.


Classification of status of employment

Classification of status of employment refers to employment data that are compiled using the current international standard International Classification of Status in Employment (ISCE-93).  It classifies jobs with respect to the type of explicit or implicit contract of employment between the job holder and the economic unit in which he or she is employed.  Therefore, it aims to provide the basis for production of internationally comparable statistics on the employment relationship, including the distinction between salaried employment and self-employment.


Central government accounting status

Government finance accounting status refers to the accounting basis for reporting central government financial data.  For many countries’ government finance data, have been consolidated into one set of accounts capturing all the central government’s fiscal activities and following noncash recording basis.  Budgetary central government accounts do not necessarily include all central government units, the picture they provide of central government activities is usually incomplete.


Compilation of government finance statistics refers to the Government Finance Statistics Manual (GFSM) in use for compiling the data.  It provides guidelines on the institutional structure of governments and the presentation of fiscal data in a format similar to business accounting with a balance sheet and income statement plus guidelines on the treatment of exchange rate and other valuation adjustments.  The latest manual GFSM2014 is harmonized with the SNA2008.


Compilation of monetary and financial statistics refers to the Monetary and Financial Statistics Manual (MFSM) in use.  It covers concepts, definitions, classifications of financial instruments and sectors, and accounting rules, and provides a comprehensive analytic framework for monetary and financial planning and policy determination.  The Monetary and Finance Statistics: Compilation Guide (2008) provides detailed guidelines for the compilation of monetary and financial statistics in addition to MFSM.


Finance Indicator based on PARIS21 indicators on SDG 17.18.3 & SDG 17.19.1

Indicator based on PARIS21 SDG indicators (SDG 17.18.3 (national statistical plan that is fully funded and under implementation) and SDG 17.19.1 (value of resources made available to strengthen statistical capacity)). Could also incorporate indicator of NSO budget as a percentage of GDP.


Dimension 1.5: Data use by international organizations

Five measures usefulness or reliability of country produced measures for international organizations. First, on comparability of poverty estimates for the World Bank reporting on international poverty (Source: Povcalnet). Second on usable surveys for statistics on child mortality for the UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation (Source: https://childmortality.org/). Third on accuracy of debt reporting as classified by the World Bank (Source: World Bank WDI metadata).  Fourth, on availability of safely managed drinking water data for use by JMP.  Fifth, on labor force participation data for use by ILO. We recognize that these data sources provide only partial coverage but consider that they do at least provide some indication of the performance of the national statistical system. With more complete data sources it would be possible to assess this further


Dimension 2.1: Data Releases

SDDS/e-GDDS subscription. This indicator is based on whether the country subscribes to IMF SDDS+, SDDS, or e-GDDS standards.  The source is the IMF Dissemination Standards Bulletin Board.  This is a good data source but we recognize that it is a proxy for the concept we are seeking to capture rather than a direct measurement.


Dimension 2.2: Online access

ODIN Open Data Openness score.  This is a well-established data source with good country coverage. In using this indicator, it is important to describe carefully what is captured since the purpose of ODIN is different to the purpose of the SPI.


Dimension 2.4: Data services

NADA metadata.  This indicator checks whether NADA microdata cataloging is available for surveys produced by NSO.  NADA is an open source microdata cataloging system, compliant with the Data Documentation Initiative (DDI) and Dublin Cores RDF metadata standards.  Source: NSO websites.


Dimension 3.1: Social Statistics

Average score for Goal 1-6 indicators. The primary data source is the UN SDG database. Whilst this is a database with comprehensive coverage that all countries have signed up to, it is clear that many (particularly developed countries) are not yet submitting their available national data. Scores for these countries are likely to represent an indicator of their willingness to submit national data rather than their performance in calculating the indicators.  For OECD countries, we supplement the UN SDG database with comparable data submitted to the OECD following the methodology in Measuring Distance to the SDG Targets 2019: An Assessment of Where OECD Countries Stand (https://www.oecd.org/sdd/measuring-distance-to-the-sdg-targets-2019-a8caf3fa-en.htm).

Dimension 4.1: Censuses and Surveys - Censuses only

Average score Census and Survey Indicators indicators. Availability of recent censuses and surveys covering broad areas.  The following censuses and surveys are considered: Population & Housing census, Agriculture census, Business/establishment census, Household Survey on income/ consumption/ expenditure/ budget/ Integrated Survey, Agriculture survey, Labor Force Survey, Health/Demographic survey, Business/establishment survey. Source: NSO websites, World Bank microdata library, ILO microdata library, IHSN microdata librar


Dimension 4.1: Censuses and Surveys - Surveys only


Dimension 4.2: Administrative Data

Average score for CRVS indicator.  An ideal indicator would include a score based on the density of administrative data available in sectors of social protection, education, labor, and health.  However, social protection, education, health, and labor admin data indicators not included because of lack of established methodology. While our team identified several promising sources for administrative data from the World Bank's ASPIRE team, WHO, UNESCO, and ILO, incomplete coverage across countries made us drop these indicators from our index.  A major research and data collection effort is needed from all custodian agencies  to fill in this information, so that a more comprehensive picture of administrative data availability can be produced.


Dimension 4.3: Geospatial Data

Geospatial data available at 1st Admin Level.  We recognize that this data source provides only limited coverage but consider that it does at least provide some indication of the ability of the national statistical system to produce geospatial data. A major research and data collection effort is needed via GGIM to fill in this information, so that a more comprehensive picture of geospatial data capability at the national level can be produced. Until this is done, it we cannot even assess the scale of the data gaps in a comparable way.


Dimension 5.1: Legislation and governance

Included in dashboard, but not index because of insufficient country coverage.  This indicator is based on PARIS21 indicators on SDG 17.18.2 (national statistical legislation compliance with UN Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics), existence of National Statistical Council, national statistical strategy generation, national statistical plan. Limited country coverage makes cross country comparison limited.  A global database of statistical and data legislation and governance practice would be a valuable resource for capacity building in general not just for the SPI.


Dimension 5.2: Standards and Methods

Average score for Standards and Methods indicators. Internationally accepted and recommended methodology, classifications and standards provide the basis for national statistical offices (NSOs) on data integration, facilitating data exchange and providing the foundation for the preparation of relevant statistical indicators.  The following methods and standards are considered:  System of national accounts in use, National Accounts base year, Classification of national industry, CPI base year, Classification of household consumption, Classification of status of employment, Central government accounting status, Compilation of government finance statistics, Compilation of monetary and financial statistics, Business process.  . Further work could improve the validity of this indicator and reduce the risk that countries may be incentivized to adopt only traditional standards and methods and neglect innovative solutions that may be more valid in the current context.


Dimension 5.5: Finance

Included in dashboard, but not index because of insufficient country coverage and concerns that the indicator has biases that would lead to misleading incentives.  The indicator is based on PARIS21 SDG indicators (SDG 17.18.3 (national statistical plan that is fully funded and under implementation).

International tourism, number of arrivals

International inbound tourists (overnight visitors) are the number of tourists who travel to a country other than that in which they have their usual residence, but outside their usual environment, for a period not exceeding 12 months and whose main purpose in visiting is other than an activity remunerated from within the country visited. When data on number of tourists are not available, the number of visitors, which includes tourists, same-day visitors, cruise passengers, and crew members, is shown instead. Sources and collection methods for arrivals differ across countries. In some cases data are from border statistics (police, immigration, and the like) and supplemented by border surveys. In other cases data are from tourism accommodation establishments. For some countries number of arrivals is limited to arrivals by air and for others to arrivals staying in hotels. Some countries include arrivals of nationals residing abroad while others do not. Caution should thus be used in comparing arrivals across countries. The data on inbound tourists refer to the number of arrivals, not to the number of people traveling. Thus a person who makes several trips to a country during a given period is counted each time as a new arrival.

World Tourism Organization, Yearbook of Tourism Statistics, Compendium of Tourism Statistics and data files.


International tourism, number of departures

International outbound tourists are the number of departures that people make from their country of usual residence to any other country for any purpose other than a remunerated activity in the country visited. The data on outbound tourists refer to the number of departures, not to the number of people traveling. Thus a person who makes several trips from a country during a given period is counted each time as a new departure.


International tourism, receipts (current US$)

International tourism receipts are expenditures by international inbound visitors, including payments to national carriers for international transport. These receipts include any other prepayment made for goods or services received in the destination country. They also may include receipts from same-day visitors, except when these are important enough to justify separate classification. For some countries they do not include receipts for passenger transport items. Data are in current U.S. dollars.


International tourism, receipts (% of total exports)

International tourism receipts are expenditures by international inbound visitors, including payments to national carriers for international transport. These receipts include any other prepayment made for goods or services received in the destination country. They also may include receipts from same-day visitors, except when these are important enough to justify separate classification. For some countries they do not include receipts for passenger transport items. Their share in exports is calculated as a ratio to exports of goods and services, which comprise all transactions between residents of a country and the rest of the world involving a change of ownership from residents to nonresidents of general merchandise, goods sent for processing and repairs, nonmonetary gold, and services.

World Tourism Organization, Yearbook of Tourism Statistics, Compendium of Tourism Statistics and data files, and IMF and World Bank exports estimates.


International tourism, receipts for passenger transport items (current US$)

International tourism receipts for passenger transport items are expenditures by international inbound visitors for all services provided in the international transportation by resident carriers. Also included are passenger services performed within an economy by nonresident carriers. Excluded are passenger services provided to nonresidents by resident carriers within the resident economies; these are included in travel items. In addition to the services covered by passenger fares--including fares that are a part of package tours but excluding cruise fares, which are included in travel--passenger services include such items as charges for excess baggage, vehicles, or other personal accompanying effects and expenditures for food, drink, or other items for which passengers make expenditures while on board carriers. Data are in current U.S. dollars.


International tourism, expenditures for passenger transport items (current US$)

International tourism expenditures for passenger transport items are expenditures of international outbound visitors in other countries for all services provided during international transportation by nonresident carriers. Also included are passenger services performed within an economy by nonresident carriers. Excluded are passenger services provided to nonresidents by resident carriers within the resident economies; these are included in travel items. In addition to the services covered by passenger fares--including fares that are a part of package tours but excluding cruise fares, which are included in travel--passenger services include such items as charges for excess baggage, vehicles, or other personal accompanying effects and expenditures for food, drink, or other items for which passengers make expenditures while on board carriers. Data are in current U.S. dollars.


International tourism, receipts for travel items (current US$)

International tourism receipts for travel items are expenditures by international inbound visitors in the reporting economy. The goods and services are purchased by, or on behalf of, the traveler or provided, without a quid pro quo, for the traveler to use or give away. These receipts should include any other prepayment made for goods or services received in the destination country. They also may include receipts from same-day visitors, except in cases where these are so important as to justify a separate classification. Excluded is the international carriage of travelers, which is covered in passenger travel items. Data are in current U.S. dollars.
