From the Autumn statement from nigeria rcs data the Chancellor of the Exchequer on November 20th to the welcome drop in inflation rates earlier in the autumn, the news has been full of stories around the topics of poverty, deprivation and the cost-of-living crisis.
Researchers, charities, politicians and many others rely on data to focus and underpin their efforts. The UK Data Service is in a unique position to make large amounts of high quality social, economic and population data available which can support people working in this area.
Moving into 2024, we will continue to build on our work on our Impact Theme work. As part of this work we want to highlight the impact some of the data available via the UK Data Service is having in research, policy and public conversations around the areas of poverty, deprivation and the cost-of-living crisis. To do this we’ve pulled together some research, reports and articles we’ve noted over the autumn that make use of data available in the collection as well as content from posts on the Data Impact blog and our most recent case study. You can see our summer summary in this previous blog post.
