## Description

World Data Lab (WDL) is a pioneering organization committed to democratizing access to data, particularly focused on developing nations. Founded in 2014 by seasoned World Bank alumni Homi Kharas and Wolfgang Fengler, WDL emerged in response to a significant gap in reliable data for global development initiatives. The organization uses advanced data science methodologies to model and forecast consumer trends, demographic shifts, and spending behaviors. Its flagship platform, World Data Pro, is instrumental for businesses and organizations making data-driven decisions.

WDL’s impactful projects include the World Poverty Clock, which challenges prevailing narratives around poverty, and the Internet Poverty Index, which addresses data deficits in Africa. With a dedicated team based in multiple global locations, including a newly established office in Kenya, WDL focuses on enhancing local data capabilities through innovative tools and compassionate support. Their core values encompass innovation, integrity, and empathy, driving their mission to turn complex global datasets into actionable insights for growth and social impact.
