STRATEG

The STRATEG system is a publicly accessible system, which is updated quarterly and designed to facilitate the process of monitoring the development and evaluating the effects of actions undertaken to strengthen social cohesion. The database contains a comprehensive set of key measures to monitor (mainly annual) development at the national level, as well as at lower levels of territorial division. To ensure international comparability, the database also contains the main indicators for the EU, its member states and regions at NUTS 2 level.

The system is also used as a repository of indicators relating to various strategies – starting from the Europe 2020 Strategy of the EU and the most general Long-term National Development Strategy, as well as the Medium-term National Development Strategy, through 9 integrated strategies concerning economic efficiency and innovation, transport, energy security and environment, regional development, human capital, social capital, sustainable development of rural areas, agriculture and fishing industry, efficient state and national security. In addition, the system stores information on indicators for regional strategies, Partnership Agreement, National and Regional Operational Programmes.

Analysis and perception of information is facilitated by data visualisation tools in the form maps and charts, as well as a comprehensive set of metadata describing the indicators. The system resources also provide additional information, such as links to most important documents of strategic importance, reports and other publications.

Data sources

Data about indicators available in the system come from official statistics and several dozen other sources, such as scientific institutes, national and regional centres and agencies, databases of international organizations and institutions.

Additional information

Relative figures (indexes, percentages) are generally calculated based on absolute data, expressed with a higher precision than presented in the tables. Owing to rounding, totals may not always correspond to the sum of all figures shown.
