1. The UNESCO Cultural Employment table includes comparable data to monitor the contribution of culture to economic and social development as well as the conditions of those engaged in cultural activities.
2. The UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) Questionnaire on Feature Film Statistics yields data including all key countries in the film industry. The data provide a unique perspective on how different countries and regions are transforming traditional approaches to the art and industry of film-making, especially in video and digital formats. Key indicators focus on habits of film consumption by looking at the origin of films viewed, as well as the most popular films, based on the frequency of attendance. Other indicators focus on indoor cinemas per capita and average ticket price per capita, providing a good perspective on cinema infrastructure and access.
3. The UNESCO International Trade in Cultural Goods table is built using data from the UN Comtrade Database, which itself comprise of detailed global trade data.
