Equity and Social Indicators: Monitoring the Millennium Development Goals (EQXIS)

EQXIS was developed by the Poverty and Inequality Unit of the Sustainable Development Department of the Inter-American Development Bank, with the collaboration of other Departments and Divisions of the Bank. Available in English and Spanish, this online information tool presents disaggregated estimates for 30 Millennium Development Goal (MDG) indicators and other social indicators by gender, region, ethnicity, and income quintiles for 4 points in time and 20 countries of Latin America and the Caribbean. Estimations (based on microdata from sample-based household surveys) are accompanied by statistical significance and methodological details; different data display options are available within charts and tables. A tutorial is provided.
