| Summary: | The World Bank’s World Development Indicators are the primary collection of development statistics including economic, social, and environment indicators compiled from recognized international sources. It presents the most current and accurate global development data available, and includes relevant national, regional and global aggregated estimates for the purposes of analytics and policy making in international development arena.
In this paper, we review major policy decisions, key investments in technological platforms, and best practices in quality management around the reputation of the World Development Indicators. These findings are presented with the prospects of assessing how international statistical organizations model high demand statistical products, gather resources for their production, and establish subsequent quality control frameworks – including customer relations – needed for their sustainability. |
