We have the data, let’s use it better: Pushing the boundaries of social protection administrative data analysis and use

Overview:

This publication showcases how social protection administrative data can be used strategically for policy, programme design, and decision-making. It shows how data from social protection information systems, social registries, beneficiary registries, and other administrative sources can support better analysis, monitoring, evaluation, transparency, and accountability. The report is especially relevant for practitioners interested in data-driven social protection, administrative data use, dashboards, interoperability, data quality, and evidence-informed policy.
