The Royal Statistical Society

UNJUST are delighted to collaborate with the Royal Statistical Society in their Statisticians for Society (S4S) initiative.

S4S connects UK third sector organisations with skilled volunteer statisticians and data science professionals at no cost, allowing small organisations such as UNJUST the opportunity to commission independent, quantitative research.  

We partnered with Dr Michel Mesquita PhD, to produce a statistical analysis of police stop-and-search practices across five years of official government data, highlighting disparities according to age, gender, ethnicity and geographical area.
