Income, poverty and social exclusion

Project Name: Income, poverty and social exclusion
Client: European Commission, Eurostat
Country: Luxembourg
Dates: 2006–2008
Project description: CRI assisted Eurostat in the preparation, calculation, validation and dissemination of EU Member State statistics on income, poverty and social exclusion (IPSE project). For the production of quality reports, the development of several applications were required to: analyse EU statistics on revenue and living conditions (EU-SILC micro-data); calculate relevant indicators and create a complete list of indicators. Owing to this service, Eurostat could upload the statistics into the Eurobase database within the required timeframe. CRI’s service also included: defining global and statistical methodologies; analysing and developing applications, particularly SAS, with user-friendly interfaces; controlling data integrity and coherence before uploading in the new database.
Technologies and tools: SAS, Oracle, UNIX
