All your country data needs!

Featured Database: World Development Indicators Online

World Development Indicators Online is UNCG's primary database for statistics on individual countries. Originally published as the World Bank's World Development Indicators Yearbook, WDI compiles development data for over 800 indicators and 200 countries. The purpose of this compilation is to provide a statistical benchmark for the progress of development in individual countries and regions. The data is wide ranging from economic indicators, such as balance of payments data, to social indicators, such as the literacy rate.

If you are working on topics with an international focus or country comparisons, I encourage to explore WDI. It is a great database and very easy to use.

Off campus access to World Development Indicators Online is restricted to UNCG faculty, staff, and students.
