For an exhaustive contact list of National Statistical Offices, you may consult the UN Statistical Division. For information on household surveys and censuses, you may consult the International Household Survey Network. Inventory of Initiatives aimed at measuring human rights and democratic governance This inventory is a dynamic database which main objective is to provide relevant information and networking tools to the organisations and individuals who are implementing or planning to implement evidence-based assessment of human rights and democratic governance. The inventory contains information on the scope, aims, methods and outcomes of recent and current initiatives launched in the five continents. It is based on a first series of responses to a world-wide Metagora survey and it will be continuously updated and expanded. If your organisation is conducting relevant work in measuring democratic governance and human rights issues, the method you are applying and the results of this work may be of the highest interest for other organisations and individuals around the globe. We would therefore invite you to click on the button below the world map, to fill in the questionnaire and to send it back to us. Please note that the description of the initiatives contained in this inventory is of the sole responsibility of the implementing organisations and it does not necessarily reflect the views of the OECD or of the donor institutions that are supporting the Metagora project.         top
