Data
you can trust

Using state-of-the-art data science methodologies, we model and provide real-time data as well as forecasts up to 2030, which aligns with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and SDGs.

Tools
that deliver

We have developed private and several public tools that track income per capita as well as SDGs in real-time. With our unique tool, MarketPro, businesses can make strategic decisions based on the current market.

Design
that inspires

Our data visualization models are not only granular but also global. They provide people and organizations with key insights on global spending power trends as well as estimates and projections on population, hunger, poverty, water scarcity, and more.

SDG 1

The World
Poverty Clock

The World Poverty Clock provides country-level poverty estimates and projections. Headline numbers on extreme poverty are not enough to support action. To provide organizations with the data necessary to design development policies and projects, it also offers subnational poverty forecasts for select countries.

SDG 2

The World
Hunger Clock

The World Hunger Clock provides real-time country-level hunger estimates and projections.
Our clock allows you to see crisis spots in the world to demonstrate which regions require attention, as well as how many people become/escape food insecurity or stunting.

SDG 6

Water Scarcity Clock

The world is running out of water. The Water Scarcity Clock was created in collaboration with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) to track the number of people living in water scarce areas in real time.
