Listed in Harvard Dataverse
The Index of African Governance is a project to measure and assess the quality of governance across the forty-eight countries of sub-Saharan Africa.
Description
It focuses on performance in five areas: Safety and Security; the Rule of Law, Transparency, and Corruption; Participation and Human Rights; Sustainable Economic Opportunity; and Human Development. Using 57 indicators, the Index offers a report card on performance in each country.
The 2008 edition of the Index assesses the years 2000, 2002, 2005, and 2006. Data are drawn from a variety of sources, including our own in-country research. The Index is updated annually and all data are back-updated to reflect the latest data available and to allow for comparisons over time.
