UNESCO Education Statistics, 1970-2016

As the statistical branch of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (<a href="http://www.unesco.org/new/en/unesco/" title="UNESCO">UNESCO</a>), the Institute for Statistics (UIS) produces cross-nationally comparable statistics on education, science and technology, culture, and communication for more than 200 countries and territories. </br></br><br> The UNESCO Education Statistics dataset includes over 1600 indicators for 290+ countries/territories from 1970 onwards. From pre-primary school enrolment to tertiary graduation rates, it covers all education levels and addresses key policy issues such as gender parity, teachers and education financing. </br></br><br> Citation: The example bibliographic citation for the databases is: UNESCO (2016): Education Statistics (Edition: June 2016).
