World Bank (finally) grants free access to its data!
April 23rd, 2010
Good news for the economists and statistics wonks among us: the World Bank has recently made its substantial catalogue of data available on the web for free at http://data.worldbank.org! We applaud the Bank for taking this important step! The site and the data are available in four languages: Arabic, English, French and Spanish. Open access to this data is invaluable for researchers and interested members of the public who want to better understand global trends on a host of topics.
Tell us, how would you like to see this data used?
