Linking data for more integrated analysis on well-being, inequalities, and poverty

Linking data for more integrated analysis on well-being, inequalities, and poverty

Parallel Session - People’s well-being is multidimensional and spans a broad range of outcomes and circumstances. One barrier to gaining a complete picture of the well-being of individuals or groups, and of the complex drivers and interlinkages across dimensions, is that relevant information may often by siloed between different data sources and repositiories. Increasingly methods are being developed to achieve a more integrated analysis of well-being by linking from different sources, such as administrative data and household surveys. This session showcased practice examples and research related to data linking initiatives on well-being, inequalities, and poverty.

This session was moderated  by Rutger Hoekstra, Associate professor, Institute of Environmental Sciences of Leiden University.
