Unlocking Data for Change
To encourage broad engagement and ensure the data drives real change, the full 2024 Index dataset will be made open access by the end of 2025. This means policymakers, researchers, practitioners, and communities will be able to access, explore, and apply the findings to shape better outcomes for young children across South Africa.
We encourage you to engage with the Index, use the data to ask bold questions, generate fresh insights, and spark solutions that help every child thrive.
