Open Data
Government of Canada Open Data websiteOn March 17, 2011, the Government of Canada launched an Open Data portal. As part of that effort, statistical data and other information on Canada's international assistance and CIDA's activities are now available in data sets and machine-readable formats for researchers, students, media or anyone interested in international assistance. Each data set has its own definitions and they are not often comparable — please review the data field definitions carefully before downloading the data sets. Links to related reports and other data sources are also provided.
For more information on international development, CIDA programs or how to get involved in international development, please visit CIDA's home page. Open data from CIDA and several other Canadian federal government departments is available at data.gc.ca.
