Data notes

Are there an Inter-American Development Bank active projects list for 2024?

Yes. The dataset includes active IDB projects and can be filtered by project status, approval date, country, sector, subsector, operation type, lending type, and financing amount. For 2024-specific analysis, users can filter the approval date field to 2024 and the status field to active or implementation.

What types of projects does the IDB fund?

Yes. The dataset shows that the IDB funds multiple project types, including technical cooperation, loan operations, investment grants, grant financing products, guarantees, equity operations, and container operations. These projects span sectors such as state modernization, agriculture, social investment, private firms and SME development, environment, water and sanitation, energy, education, transport, health, financial markets, and regional integration.

Is there a list of active Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) development projects?

Yes. The dataset is a searchable list of IDB projects and includes both active and historical records. Active projects can be identified using the status fields and filtered by country, sector, approval date, lending type, and operation type.

How are IDB projects funded, and what are the primary financial instruments used?

Yes. The dataset identifies funding through fields such as operation type, lending type, lending instrument, original approved amount, total original cost, and local counterpart funding. Financial instruments include investment loans, policy-based loans, technical cooperation, grants, guarantees, equity, and other IDB instruments.

What is the difference between IDB technical cooperation and investment loan projects?

Yes. The dataset distinguishes operation types and lending instruments, including technical cooperation and investment loans. Technical cooperation records generally relate to advisory, capacity-building, or preparatory support, while investment loans are financing instruments for larger investment operations.

Does the dataset include a lending type field that distinguishes IDB sovereign guaranteed vs non-sovereign guaranteed projects?

Yes. The dataset includes a lending-type field that distinguishes between sovereign-guaranteed and non-sovereign-guaranteed projects. This allows users to separate public-sector-backed operations from non-sovereign operations.

Does the dataset include IDB-funded projects from 2020–2025?

Yes. The dataset includes approval dates through 2025, allowing users to filter IDB-funded projects from 2020 to 2025 by year, country, sector, status, lending type, and financial instrument.

Does the dataset include sector and subsector fields, such as major sectors for IDB projects (infrastructure, education, health, climate)?

Yes. The dataset includes sector and subsector fields. Major sectors include reform and modernization of the state, agriculture and rural development, social investment, private firms and SME development, environment and natural disasters, water and sanitation, energy, education, transport, health, financial markets, urban development and housing, trade, science and technology, sustainable tourism, and regional integration.

Can the dataset be filtered by IDB projects in Honduras 2015–2025 (by sector and status)?

Yes. The dataset can be filtered for Honduras and approval years 2015–2025, then grouped by sector and project status. Based on the uploaded data, Honduras has project records across sectors during this period, including reform and modernization of the state, energy, social investment, environment and natural disasters, agriculture and rural development, health, private firms and SME development, education, water and sanitation, and trade.
