Unesco Uis Tools (3)
get_data
Fetch UNESCO UIS statistic values: education, literacy, school enrollment/completion, science (R&D) and culture indicators. Returns {records:[{indicatorId,geoUnit,year,value}]}. Indicator IDs come from list_indicators; geoUnit is an ISO3 country code (e.g. "BRA") from list_geounits. Both accept one…
list_indicators
Browse/search the UNESCO UIS indicator catalog (education, literacy, enrollment, science/R&D, culture). Filter by case-insensitive name substring. Each entry has indicatorCode (pass as `indicator` to get_data), name, theme and data availability (year range, record count).
list_geounits
List UNESCO UIS geographic units (countries/regions) with their ISO3 code (id), name and type. Use the id as `geoUnit` in get_data. Optional case-insensitive name substring filter.
