description |
Since inception more than twenty five
years ago, the World Development Indicators (WDI) presented
statistical information of the world, as seen by development
economists, and, through a growing understanding of the
development process, the WDI now encompasses over 500
indicators, covering 152 countries. A larger picture of
poverty trends and social welfare is now provided, as well
as the use of environmental resources, the performance of
the public sector, and the integration of the global
economy. This 2003 edition, focuses on measuring development
outcomes, encouraged by the availability of internationally
comparable statistics. Thus, the set of specific, quantified
targets for reducing poverty, and achieving progress in
health, education, and the use of environmental resources
has been compiled within the framework of Millennium
Development Goals, as adopted by the United Nations. The
report comprises six chapters that provide an introduction,
and statistical development information on: the world view
through key economic indicators; on people, reflecting the
population dynamics, labor force structure, employment,
poverty incidence, and social indicators among others; on
the environment as it is affected by the different sector
inputs; on the economy at large, presenting growth patterns,
the structure of trade, and financial and monetary
indicators; on states and markets, outlining private sector
development, investment climate, business environment, stock
markets, and financial efficiency; and, on global links,
analyzing the integrated global economy, trade, and
development assistance. The report acknowledges the
collective efforts of partners in development, among the
various international and government agencies, and of
private and nongovernmental organizations. |
