Data & Digital


ISE’s Data and Digital program develops tools, methods, and analysis to provide organizations and governments with more efficient and accountable ways to deliver to citizens. Utilizing our years of experience working in reform settings, combined with engagement with leading experts in the field, our Data & Digital program promotes the growth of citizen-centered data ecosystems and enables innovative problem-solving. Current projects include a Reform Sequencing Tracker that codifies the sequence of a state’s reform actions and agendas and an index that measures state effectiveness for more than 160 countries and territories across ISE’s 10 functions of the states

Reform Sequencing Tracker

ISE’s Reform Sequencing Tracker codifies the sequence and performance of government reforms after periods of transition, featuring over 30,000 reform actions in 50 countries. Users can compare how countries have prioritized and sequenced actions corresponding to ISE’s Ten Functions of the State and dig deep into the database on specific initiatives and projects.
