Data and evidence

Providing the foundational evidence base for decision making across the public sector.

To speak to one of our evidence experts, please contact us. 

We provide the public sector with a robust foundation of data and insight to enable tracking of outcomes, understanding societal shifts and to support evidence-based decision making. We collect the data used for national statistics in New Zealand and our global colleagues do the same for governments all around the world.

We integrate classical social research methods with innovative digital and non-survey approaches to collect meaningful, high-quality data. Through collaboration with our global colleagues, we ensure our approaches are based on international gold standard approaches for evidence generation.

Our ability to reach all sections of society is central to our data and evidence generation, ensuring that our data is truly representative of the diversity in Aotearoa New Zealand.

National statistics (including NZ Tier 1 statistics)

We employ a range of data collection methods to produce national statistics that the government relies on to track social and economic change. This includes one of New Zealand’s Tier 1 statistics that is used in the National Accounts.

 

Population engagement and participation measurement

Our national statistics provide long-term insights into people’s engagement levels, whether in physical activity, arts and culture, or tourism.
