    By Agriculture and Rural Development Division (VPS/PTI/ARD)
    Agrimonitor is the IDB Product Support Estimates (PSE) country-level database for Latin American and Caribbean countries. It enables policymakers and policy analysts to track agricultural policies and to assess and measure the composition of the support to agriculture. PSE indicators related to magnitudes and composition help to better describe and address the key challenges facing agriculture in the coming decade.

    By Knowledge and Learning Division (VPS/VPS/KLD); Transport Division (VPS/INE/TSP)
    Efficient and reliable transport systems are central to economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability. In Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), transport and logistics performance remains below that of advanced economies, constraining access to services, social inclusion (Scholl et al., 2021), competitiveness, and productivity (Calatayud & Montes, 2021). The EGM, available at https://developmentevidence.3ieimpact.org/egm/transportation-evidence-gap-map, presents global effectiveness evidence on transportation interventions, including roads, regional transportation and logistics; urban mobility infrastructure; and laws, regulations, and policies governing public transit, mobility, traffic, and transportation. Financed and co-produced by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), the EGM compiles, curates, and classifies studies that estimate causal effects, displaying where evidence is clustered and where gaps remain. It aims to help decision-makers...

    Water and Sanitation Tariff Dataset This dataset, created by the Knowledge team in the IDB’s Water and Sanitation Division, compiles publicly available information to compare tariff systems and subsidies across Latin America and the Caribbean. It includes data on: - Residential drinking water and sanitation tariffs - Subsidies - Tariff types - Metering - Other sector details The dataset has been simplified and published through the Water and Sanitation Observatory (OLAS) to support its mission of providing consistent, reliable, and updated data for understanding the sector at both national and regional levels—aligned with SDG 6. For a deeper dive into the process and key trends, see: How Much Do Households Pay for Water Supply and Sanitation Services in Latin America? A Descriptive Analysis of Tariffs and Subsidies in the Region.

    By Knowledge and Learning Division (VPS/VPS/KLD); Citizen Security Division (VPS/IFD/CIS)
    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...
