The United Nations Education, Science, and Culture Organization (UNESCO) has developed a series of norms and standards whose main objective is to ensure international comparability of statistics on educational investment. As part of efforts to obtain complete statistics on educational investment in Puerto Rico, officials from the UNESCO Institute of Statistics were in Puerto Rico between March 31 and April 4, 2014, and offered technical assistance on internationally agreed norms and standards to measure educational investment in each country in a comparable way. As a result of the results of this visit, this Summary of Achievements and Data Plan was developed, which will serve as a working guide to obtain the necessary statistics within the shortest possible time.
