The UNESCO Institute for Statistics has released a new data browser for Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) data. The browser allows users to view data and metadata from 2000 to 2023 in easy-to-navigate dashboards; to copy, print or download data in various formats (csv, Excel, pdf); to search for key words within the filtered dataset.

• The ‘Indicator Dashboard’ presents available data for a selected SDG 4 indicator for all countries.
• The ‘Country Dashboard’ provides an overview of data available for all SDG 4 indicators for a selected country.
• The ‘Data in Long Format’ dashboard presents the data in long vertical format where every row displays the value of an indicator for a selected country, the year and the metadata.
• The ‘Country profile’ page presents all available data and the trend in all countries.
• The ‘Regional Averages’ page displays the averages for different regional groupings for all indicators.

When the ‘Show metadata’ option is selected, metadata points are made available in two ways: as tooltips, when the cursor is positioned over the values of the indicators; and as a metadata table, below the data table.

By default, only data points disaggregated by sex are displayed. To also view data disaggregated by level of education, location and age/age group, please select the ‘All disaggregations’ option in the left pane.

By default, data for all indicators are displayed. To filter data for benchmark indicators only, please select the ‘Benchmarks Indicators Only’ option in the left pane.

By default, data points from 2013 to 2023 are displayed. To modify the period, please use the ‘Select period’ filter in the left pane.

Note : “Not applicable” and “nil or negligible” values are shown as zero. Countries without data available for a given indicator are not displayed.
