Back your child-poverty grant application with kommune-level evidence. Scope coverage gaps. Benchmark a kommune against its neighbours.

One new persona landing per quarter — journalists, donors, kommune planners, chapter leaders.
Curated collections
Grant-application essentials — child poverty
A focused starter set for grant applications about child poverty at kommune resolution. Ordered from headline → ground truth → temporal depth → lived-experience proxy → Atlas synthesis. Together these five datasets answer the four questions every directorate reviewer asks: how many, how persistent, how that compares to the neighbours, and what the policy gap looks like. Every dataset here is at kommune (4-digit kommune_code, post-2020 reform) resolution. They share a join key — `kommune_code` — so a single query stitches the whole evidence base together.
More coming soon
Each quarter we add one collection — built around a specific persona and task in NGO funding, advocacy, or programme design.

Health
Population and individual health indicators — mental health, substance use, mortality, life quality, healthcare contact. Most sources are FHI Folkehelsestatistikk tables with 3-year rolling averages.
Demographics
Population structure by age, sex, kommune, and bydel. Core denominators for any rate-based analysis. Includes SSB resident counts and FHI population projections.
Income & poverty
Household income, low-income statistics, persistent low income, and children in low-income households. SSB EU-SILC-derived series plus Bufdir's child-poverty kommunemonitor.
Education & youth
Educational outcomes — upper-secondary completion, NEET status, educational attainment by region. Includes bullying and youth wellbeing indicators that intersect with school context.
Social & housing
Social assistance use, household composition, overcrowded housing, and integration indicators. The bridge between need and the services that respond to it.
NGO supply
Norwegian NGO supply data — chapters, activities, and operational footprint across the civil-society sector. Pairs with the population and need indicators to surface coverage gaps.
Reference geographies
Canonical geographic dimensions used as join keys across every indicator: kommune and fylke classifications from SSB Klass.
