About Us
Statistics for Sustainable Development (Stats4SD) is a
not-for-profit, social enterprise established in May 2016. We promote
better use of statistical methods for decision making to benefit society
and the environment. To achieve this, we advise on:
- The use of statistical tools in the real world
- Data engineering, analysis and associated information technology
- Effective and efficient use of research methods
- Generation of information products derived from data
We work with partners throughout the world, supporting sustainable
development processes. Much of our work takes place in developing
countries. However our areas of work are not determined by geography but
by the contribution we can make. We charge for these services to cover
our costs but we do not make a profit. Any surpluses from our operations
are invested in promoting better use of statistics and capacity
building.
