Indicator (long name): Initial household funding on education (% GDP) Indicator (short name): FUND(HH%GDP) Definition: Total payments of households (pupils, students and their families) for educational institutions (such as for tuition fees, exam and registration fees, contribution to Parent-Teacher associations or other school funds, and fees for canteen, boarding and transport) and purchases outside of educational institutions (such as for uniforms, textbooks, teaching materials, or private classes). 'Initial funding' means that government transfers to households, such as scholarships and other financial aid for education, are substracted from what is spent by households. Note that in some countries for some education levels, the value of this indicator may be 0, since on average households may be receiving as much, or more, in financial aid from the government than what they are spending on education. Source of variable definition: UNESCO Institute for Statistics. http://data.uis.unesco.org/. Comment: Indicators for household expenditure on education should be interpreted with caution since data comes from household surveys which may not all follow the same definitions and concepts. In 2022 and 2023, the GGP Contextual Database was updated. However, this indicator was no longer available from UNESCO and a suitable alternative was not found. As a result, this indicator was not updated and the published data is that which was downloaded and published originally in 2019.
