Data Tools and Indicators
Data underpins everything we do at the Melbourne Institute. We apply cutting-edge statistical and econometric methodology to primary and secondary data sets, producing trusted tools and insights for government, education, business and community organisations.
Our indicators are valuable resources for anyone concerned with social welfare policy in Australia, and are widely reported in the media and referenced by economists nationwide. We publish both subscription and free reports at monthly or quarterly intervals, with time series data also available.
