Thematic Datasets

Demscore's Thematic Datasets assemble a wide range of variables from datasets across all partnering Modules related to a selected topic.

All thematic datasets in Demscore are by default available in the Demscore Country-Year Output Unit, using the Demscore Country-Year Identifiers. They therefore have identically ordered rows and can be horizontally merged. In some cases, we also make thematic datasets available in additional output units, for instance when a majority of the variables in the dataset comes from a unit of analysis which is not originally country-year, and having the dataset available only in the Demscore Country-Year output unit would mean loss of information.
