AidData's Core Research Release 3.1 is a corrected snapshot of AidData's entire project-level database from April 2016. This database includes commitment information for over 1.5 million development finance activities funded between 1947 and 2013, covers 96 donors, and includes ODA, OOF flows, Equity Investments, and Export Credits where available.
The dataset captures 20,985 projects across 165 low- and middle-income countries supported by loans and grants from official sector institutions in China worth $1.34 trillion. It tracks projects over 22 commitment years (2000-2021) and provides details on the timing of project implementation over a 24-year period (2000-2023).
For the inclusion of the data in the QoG datasets, the data is transformed and variables are selected.
The original dataset is at the commitment level and has more information about each commitment; this dataset is available at https://www.aiddata.org/data/aiddatas-global-chinese-development-finance-dataset-version-3-0
