OECD International Development (Debt and Aid) Statistics, 1975-2015

Published annually by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's (OECD) Development Assistance Committee (DAC), the <i>International Development Statistics</i> provide up-to-date comparative statistics and information on international development from 1975 onwards, presented in the following key tables:<br>
<br>
<b>Creditor Reporting System </b><br>
The objective of the CRS Aid Activity database is to provide a set of readily available basic data that enables analysis on where aid goes, what purposes it serves and what policies it aims to implement, on a comparable basis for all DAC members. Data are collected on individual projects and programmes. Focus is on financial data but some descriptive information is also made available.<br>
<br>
<b>Geographical distribution of financial flows</b> <br>
This dataset provides comprehensive data on the volume, origin and types of aid and other resource flows to more than 200 recipients. The data show each country's intake of official development assistance and well as other official and private funds from members of the Development Assistance Committee of the OECD, multilateral agencies and other key donors.<br>
<br>
<b>Detailed aid statistics</b> <br>
The detailed aid statistics provide comprehensive data on the volume, origin and types of foreign aid and other resource flows from donor countries to recipient countries.<br>
<br>
<b>Gender, Institutions and Development</b> <br>
The Gender, Institutions and Development Data Base presents comparative data on gender equality. It has been compiled from secondary sources such as Gender Stats and the Human Development Report as well as from in-depth reviews of country case studies. The data are divided into six categories: (i) general country information, (ii) social institutions, (iii) access to resources, (iv) political empowerment, (v) economic status of women and (vi) composite indicators of gender equality.<br>
