About HealthThe
Making Singapore’s
health data meaningful.
HealthThe is an independent project exploring how public health data can help us understand a changing Singapore.
Explore ageing trends and health explainers.
The Ageing Room explores Singapore’s ageing population and neighbourhood demographics.
HealthThe Pulse explains health issues using official evidence and practical guidance.
Both make public evidence easier to understand, with clear sources, accessible visuals and questions for further investigation.
Our data-analysis approach
How HealthThe turns data into understanding
Six phases guide the work, from the first question to a clearer explanation of the evidence.
Decide what to understand and who would benefit.
Find relevant official sources and retain the original files.
Check missing values, definitions, dates and consistency.
Compare trends and neighbourhoods, noting the limitations.
Present clear visuals, context and sources.
Check interpretations and identify questions for further investigation.
