Brief presentation of the results of the Global Data Barometer

The Global Data Barometer is a collaborative project that aims to measure the state of data in relation to urgent societal issues.  Together with regional hubs and thematic partners, we seek to appraise data availability, governance, capability and use around the world to help shape data infrastructures that limit risks and harms in climate action, company information, health and COVID-19, land, political integrity, public finance and public procurement.

The Global Data Barometer evaluates data in 109 countries. Among other tools, the peer review period May 2019 - May 2021 provides evidence on the governance, capabilities, availability and use of data across sectors. The barometer breaks down the concept of public good data into different components and sub-components, each of which is assessed separately. The score is then summed into a total score.
