World Governance Indicators

World Governance Indicators (WGI) are a set of research data that assess how well countries are governed. Developed by the World Bank, these indicators measure aspects like political stability, government effectiveness, regulatory quality, rule of law, control of corruption, and voice and accountability. The aim is to provide a comprehensive view of governance quality across nations. By evaluating these indicators, policymakers, researchers, and the public can better understand governance challenges and successes in different countries, helping to promote improvements in governance worldwide.
