Societies today are faced with misinformation and disinformation, declining trust in media and the groundbreaking impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on everyday life. Official statistics and statistical literacy are essential for navigating the world around us. 

To help you make sense of statistics, Eurostat’s Education Corner offers many resources tailored for teachers, students and all the inquisitive minds. With Statistics 4 beginners’ articles, you can learn about key statistical indicators, such as what is GDP and how to compare it among countries and population concepts. 

You can also explore and play with data with our interactive publications. These present short summaries of the key findings on specific topics, such as regions in Europe, demography, digitalization, and energy, while showcasing dynamic visualizations. Furthermore, you can dive into our data visualizations and discover how your country compares with others in Europe.  

The Statistical literacy newsletter is also an excellent way to keep up-to-date on the latest tools and resources from Eurostat and the statistical offices in EU countries. Sign up and receive it directly in your inbox. 

The recorded webinars “Unlocking informed decisions with high-quality statistics” and “Navigate European statistics with Eurostat” are a good option if you are looking for visual presentations with relevant information. Check the webinars page to find other recordings on a statistical topic that interests you.  

If you prefer to listen to a podcast, we have podcast episodes that delve into the importance of statistical literacy and how we promote it, fact-checking and trust in times of fake news, and how the European Statistics Competition empowers young people. 

In our ongoing efforts to promote statistical literacy among secondary school students, we have just launched the 9th edition of the European Statistics Competition, which we invite you to join.
