SDG 4 Data Book 2019

This publication presents the global monitoring indicators used by countries and the international development community to monitor progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) on education. The indicators were produced by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS), based on the latest available data.

The UIS is the official source of internationally-comparable education data and the custodian agency for SDG 4 data. This mandate reflects the trust of the international community in UIS data and its proven track record in methodological work and standard-setting with national statistical offices, line ministries and technical partners in every region.
