European Statistical System (ESS)

The European Statistical System (ESS) is a collaborative framework that brings together different European countries' statistical offices and agencies. Its goal is to produce reliable, comparable, and timely official statistics about Europe—covering topics like economics, population, and environment. By working together, these agencies ensure that data across countries is consistent, accurate, and useful for policymakers, businesses, and researchers. The ESS helps improve decision-making at both national and EU levels, fostering trust and transparency in Europe’s statistical information.
