CEPALSTAT

PRESENTATION

CEPALSTAT is the gateway to all the statistical information of Latin America and the Caribbean countries collected, systematized and published by ECLAC.

The availability of timely statistical information is essential for socio-economic and environmental analysis and for various decision-making processes. ECLAC has been contributing in the dissemination of relevant data in the economic, social and environmental fields for Latin America and the Caribbean through various means. While most of the information disseminated is produced by official agencies of countries and international agencies, its systematization and documentation constitutes a contribution for users of regional data.

CEPALSTAT provides access to statistical databases produced by many ECLAC Divisions. In each of them the user can export data and cross-tabulate indicators to produce tables combining data from different series and / or countries and / or periods. Charts can also be prepared based on the stored data.  Metadata containing the definition of the variables, description of the sources, and other relevant characteristics can be consulted and downloaded.

On the other hand, CEPALSTAT gives access to statistical publications and statistical tables included in statistical appendixes of analytical publications produced by ECLAC.

In addition, users can consult a set of documents containing recommendations and international methodological guides for the production of the statistics presented on this site. Most common international classifications systems can also be found.

For any inquire, please write to cepalstat@cepal.org.
