How SIA reports results
Every figure SIA publishes has a definition, a source and an "as of" date, and the same number appears on every page, proposal and report. A figure without an agreed definition is not published until it has one.
That is why some results on this page are still marked for checking: they will appear here once they are confirmed.
Work with SIA on a programme like this
SIA designs and delivers programmes with donors, government and companies, and measures every result.
