Our impact

Poverty in data brings together a broad evidence base of the use of data in the collection which help researchers understand lived experience and advocate for improvements for those living in poverty and deprivation, especially during the current cost of living crisis.

Mental health and wellbeing showcases past and current data-driven research in these vital areas. This includes content from the Data Impact blog and case studies.

Children and young people in data is our latest impact theme page. We will be highlighting the way in which data is being used to support research into the lives of young people and children across a range of topics including education, health and families.

Our Data Impact events seek to create space for discussion and debate around ideas on data impact.

The UK Data Service provides access to a world-class collection of social, economic and population data. Explore examples of how the data are used to inform research, influence policy and develop skills in many areas.

The Data Impact blog is a hub for researchers, students, communities, policymakers, government and anyone interested in maximising the impact of social, population and economic data in research and policy.
