Sanad’s public-data project
Real data about Syria, organized, sourced, and made easier to understand.
The Syria Data Observatory collects public data from documented international sources, preserves versions and lineage, and turns it into traceable indicators and dashboards. Coverage and reference periods vary by source; gaps are never filled with invented values.
