Mo Ibrahim Foundation announces new updates to the Ibrahim Index of African Governance data portal

The Mo Ibrahim Foundation has enhanced its Ibrahim Index of African Governance portal, offering a more interactive way to analyze public governance across Africa. This update provides detailed country profiles and measure pages that allow users to drill down into specific governance dimensions, from rule of law to health, comparing individual national performance against continental averages. By making this extensive dataset more accessible, the initiative empowers data journalists, researchers, and civil society organizations to better scrutinize and benchmark governance quality. The ability to track trends and identify the most improved or deteriorated areas over a ten-year period supports evidence-based advocacy and informed decision-making for African citizens and stakeholders interested in political and social development. This resource is highly relevant to open data because it democratizes access to comprehensive, standardized metrics on government performance. It enables transparent monitoring of how well governments deliver public goods, fostering accountability through the widespread availability of comparable, long-term data that can be utilized by anyone with an interest in understanding and improving governance in the region.
