    Social Indicators of Latin America and the Caribbean is a diverse dataset of indicators designed to capture social conditions in Latin America and the Caribbean. The social indicators of development are derived from national household survey data, Censuses, and other sources, covering 21 countries from 1990 to the present. While the social indicators encompass traditional global metrics, the database also features tailor-made indicators in five areas to more accurately capture conditions in LAC. Those include:
    1. 1. Demographics
    2. 2. Education
    3. 3. Labor Market
    4. 4. Housing, and
    5. 5. Income
    Moreover, unlike traditional aggregate indicators, the social indicators are disaggregated by:
    • - ethnicity and race (when available)
    • - gender
    • - geographic residence
    • - education, and
    • - income quintile.
    The indicators are not intended to serve as official data for any particular country but instead...

    Cybersecurity Dataset: Are We Ready in Latin America and the Caribbean? (2016) This dataset supports the 2016 Cybersecurity Report, Are We Ready in Latin America and the Caribbean?, produced by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), Organization of American States (OAS), and Global Cyber Security Capacity Centre (GCSCC) at Oxford. Data were collected via an online survey using the Cybersecurity Capability Maturity Model (CMM), developed by the GCSCC. The survey was translated into English and Spanish. Following a pilot phase, it was administered to a diverse group of national stakeholders across 32 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. The responses were aggregated, reviewed, cleaned, and supplemented with additional information from external sources to ensure completeness and...

    This dataset provides detailed data on the Portfolio Results indicators of the IDB Group Impact Framework 2024-2030. The Impact Framework is the highest-level tool of the IDB, IDB Invest, and IDB Lab for monitoring performance and achieving strategic objectives under IDBStrategy. It serves important functions in both accountability and performance management, with indicators that capture our Mission Goals, Portfolio Results, and Performance Targets. This dataset contains the 2024-2030 indicators and targets that guide the work of the IDB, IDB Invest, and IDB Lab to deliver tangible results for Latin America and the Caribbean.

    The R code is used to calculate and standardize payroll indicators from common-format personnel records. Specifically, it provides working examples for deriving each key indicator (wage bill growth, employment growth, average pay trajectories, pay equity, gender pay gap, turnover, promotions/career progression, and retirement projections), so governments can compute these measures for the whole administration, for specific agencies, or for employee subgroups (e.g., by job, gender, contract). The code also illustrates recommended calculations and helps address common data errors, enabling comparable, reproducible salary indicators across countries.

    Citizen security remains one of the most pressing development challenges facing low- and middle-income countries around the globe. In Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), for example—a region where homicide rates have consistently remained more than three times the global average (UNODC, 2023; InSight Crime, 2024)—crime and violence are estimated to cost approximately 3.4% of the region’s GDP (IDB, 2024), whereas research suggests that bringing the crime level in Latin America down to the world average would boost LAC’s average annual growth rate by 0.5 percentage points (IMF, 2023). This Evidence Gap Map (EGM) focuses on citizen security interventions led or supported by police agencies, and maps existing impact evaluations and systematic reviews that examine the effectiveness of a wide range of policing interventions aimed at reducing crime, violence, disorder, overall insecurity, and their associated risk factors and underlying determinants. While some previous evidence maps...
