| Summary: | This volume, which is the third in a
series that began with African Economic and Financial Data
(World Bank and UNDP) in 1989, followed by the first African
Development Indicators in 1992, presents data from 53
African countries, arranged in 255 separate tables or
matrices for more that 300 development indicators. In
addition, 25 charts facilitate data interpretation and
cross-country comparison. The indicators are grouped into 15
chapters: background data, national accounts, prices and
exchange rates, money and banking, the external sector,
external debt and related flows, government finance,
agriculture, industry, labor force and employment, public
enterprises, aid flows, social indicators, environmental
indicators, and household welfare indicators. Each chapter
includes a brief introduction on the nature of the data and
their limitations followed by technical notes that define
the indicators and identify specific sources. Most of the
indicators present data by year for the period 1980-93. Many
indicators also include averages or average growth rates for
three recent time periods, covering the years 1975-93 or the
most recently available year. Considerable effort has been
made to standardize the data to facilitate cross-country comparisons. |
