UN Common Database

The United Nations Statistics Division

The Statistics Division is committed to the advancement of the global statistical system. We compile and disseminate global statistical information, develop standards and norms for statistical activities, and support countries’ efforts to strengthen their national statistical systems. We facilitate the coordination of international statistical activities and support the functioning of the United Nations Statistical Commission as the apex entity of the global statistical system.

UNSD Statistical Databases

The United Nations Statistics Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA) has launched  a new internet-based data service for the global user community. 

It brings UN statistical databases within easy reach of users through a single entry point. Users can search and download a variety of statistical resources of the UN system.
