Help us improve data-driven policy change

The Global Student Forum and UNESCO IESALC are committed to enhancing how data is utilized to drive meaningful policy change. We believe that by collecting and showcasing powerful examples of student-led data initiatives, we can inspire more action and achieve greater impact.

One example we already have is the European Students’ Union’s (ESU) “Bologna With Student Eyes,” which demonstrates how students can take the lead on data collection in a professional and systematic way, producing results that influence policy on a large scale.

Now, we need your help! We are calling on students, student organizations, and supporters to share examples of how student-led data collection has been used to influence policy in your regions, countries, or local communities. This could be your own work, the work of your student organisation, or initiatives you have been following closely.
