statistic. Notes and links to relevant articles complement and substantiate the data on every category and page. InternationalComparisons.org seeks to avoid ideological or simplistic generalizations for or against the policies in the various countries, instead, the site seeks to provide objective information allowing academics, students, and the media access to the data for comparative evaluation. InternationalComparisons.org does not generate new information, but collects data from OECD, WHO, both referenced below, and other reliable and objective sources. Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Much larger than InternationalComparisons.org, the OECD has the same advanced countries, but also includes 34 additional countries, has a wider scope, and includes many more statistics for the most important websites. The OECD publishes original research as often as on a weekly basis with the objective of affecting change as it strives to achieve its slogan: “Better policies for better lives.” The Better Life Index is the organization's measure for subjective well-being. Because of its size, the OECD statistical database can be complex to navigate until one finds the part one is looking for. Social Progress Imperative The Social Progress Imperative released its second version of the Social Progress Index. It is based on four "key design principles": exclusively uses social and environmental indicators (no economic indicators), outcomes not inputs (i.e. health status not health expenditure), actionability (translatable pragmatism), and relevance to all countries (neither exclusively focused on the poorest countries nor the advanced democracies). The Social Progress Index contains 54 indicators categorized within the following three categories: basic human needs, foundations of well-being, and opportunity. United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) The United Nations Development Programme is predominantly focused on low income countries and their advancement, as evidenced in the objectives of the Millennium Development Goals, which strive to eradicate extreme poverty, HIV/AIDS, and promote education via sustainable development globally. The UNDP's Human Development Report is the original, authoritative source on subjective well-being and its evaluative analysis since it first challenged GDP/capita as the indicator for quality of life with its first Human Development Index in 1990. The annual Human Development Index is a relevant challenge for over 140 countries regardless of their development stage. World Bank The World Bank aspires to impact development by promoting open data and subsequently transparency, accountability, and democracy as the private sector is emphasized for its role. Its compiled database, the World Development Indicators, contains 18 topics containing hundreds of statistics.
