Atelier régional des Nations Unies sur CensusInfo, Bamako, Mali: 30 Novembre-4 Décembre 2009 What is an indicator  An indicator can be defined as : “a number or ratio (a value on a scale of measurement) derived from a series of observed facts”.  Indicators can be expressed in different ways: counts/absolute numbers ratios proportion rates Others: mean/median, percentage, etc.

Atelier régional des Nations Unies sur CensusInfo, Bamako, Mali: 30 Novembre-4 Décembre cont.  Counts/absolute numbers: gives an idea about a number of events or a number of people with specific characteristics.  Ratio: an expression that compares two quantities relative to each other: e.g. sex ratio, age dependency ratio, enrolment ratio.  Proportion: special type of ratio expressing a relationship between the part and the whole. The numerator represents a portion of the total; the denominator is the total: e.g. prop. of economically active population.  Rate: a type of ratio expressing the number of events occurring within a defined time period divided by the population exposed to the risk of events: e.g. infant mortality rate, age-specific fertility rate, crude birth rate.

Atelier régional des Nations Unies sur CensusInfo, Bamako, Mali: 30 Novembre-4 Décembre 2009 …cont.  Mean/median: a kind of average value of the events: Mean is the mathematical average of a set of numbers. The average is calculated by adding up two or more scores and dividing the total by the number of scores. Median is the middle of a distribution: half the scores are above the median and half are below the median : e.g. median age, median salary.
