We are a key partner in the UK Data Service, which provides the Social Science community with a pipeline to data. It is a comprehensive resource to support researchers, teachers and policymakers who depend on high-quality social and economic data.
The service offers a single point of access to a wide range of secondary data including large-scale government surveys, international macrodata, business microdata, qualitative studies, as well as census data from 1971 to 2011. All are backed with extensive support, training and guidance to meet the needs of data users, owners and creators.
We promote data sharing to encourage the reuse of data and provide expertise in developing best practice for research data management.
