Mapping for Results Partnership

Mapping for Results (M4R), a partnership between the World Bank Institute and AidData, is an innovative mapping initiative that builds on the World Bank’s Open Data Initiative to:

1) Better monitor the impact of development assistance

2) Improve aid coordination and effectiveness

3) Enhance transparency and social accountability

4) Enable citizen and stakeholder feedback on project results

To date, the Mapping for Results program has geocoded roughly 2,500 active World Bank projects working in over 30,000 locations in 144 countries. In addition to the interactive mapping platforms hosted at maps.worldbank.org and open.aiddata.org, the complete datasets are available for download from both partner web sites. The M4R partnership is now moving toward in-country mapping and results, working to provide beneficiaries with the ground-level information necessary to solicit recipient feedback and improve development outcomes.
