SIPHER Inclusive Economy DataSet

The SIPHER Inclusive Economy dataset was developed to provide a meaningful collection of data that can be used by researchers and policy actors to explore the extent and nature of economic inclusion across Great Britain.

A key topic of interest for SIPHER is the relationship between inclusive economy policies and wider health outcomes and inequalities. To help explore this we developed this set of inclusive economy indicators for use in modelling work.  

Currently, there is no universally accepted definition of what constitutes an inclusive economy. At SIPHER we focus on economic inclusion rather than inclusive growth and our collection of 13 key inclusive economy indicators was informed by an iterative co-production process with policy partners.

A Technical Paper on the development of this data set originally published in August 2022 has been revised to address subsequent indicator changes made due to data availability and reliability issues.  

The SIPHER Inclusive Economy (Local Authority Level) Dataset was launched in October 2023. 

The SIPHER Inclusive Economy (electorial ward) Dataset is in development.

This publication provides a novel statistical approach to the estimation of quality-adjusted life expectancy (QALE) for small areas in Great Britain. By studying it’s association with 13 inclusive economy indicators the paper highlights policy priorities for improving population health and reducing health inequalities. All analysis and data are provided as part of a supplementary reproducibility pack.
