A python package to work with Official Development Assistance data from the OECD DAC.
Project description
The ODA Data Package
This package contains key tools used by The ONE Campaign to analyse Official Development Assistance (ODA) data from the OECD DAC databases.
This package is currently in active development. Features and APIs may change. Please submit questions, feedback or requests via the issues page.
Getting started
Most users can get the data they need by using the ODAData
class.
An object of this class can handle:
- getting data for specific indicators (one or more)
- filtering the data for specific donors, recipients(if relevant), years.
- returning the data in a variety of currency/prices combinations.
For example, to get Total ODA in net flows and grant equivalents, in constant 2021 Euros, for 2018-2021.
from oda_data import ODAData
# create object, specifying key details of the desired output
data = ODAData(years=range(2018,2022), currency="EUR", prices="constant", base_year=2021)
# load the desired indicators
data.load_indicator(indicator="total_oda_flow_net")
data.load_indicator(indicator="total_oda_ge")
# get the data
df = data.get_data(indicators='all')
print(df.head(6))
This would result in the following dataframe:
donor_code | donor_name | year | value | indicator | currency | prices |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Austria | 2021 | 1261.76 | total_oda_flow_net | EUR | constant |
1 | Austria | 2021 | 1240.31 | total_oda_ge | EUR | constant |
2 | Belgium | 2021 | 2176.38 | total_oda_flow_net | EUR | constant |
2 | Belgium | 2021 | 2174.38 | total_oda_ge | EUR | constant |
3 | Denmark | 2021 | 2424.51 | total_oda_flow_net | EUR | constant |
3 | Denmark | 2021 | 2430.65 | total_oda_ge | EUR | constant |
To view the full list of available indicators, you can call .get_available_indicators()
.
from oda_data import ODAData
# create object
data = ODAData()
# get the list of available indicators
data.available_indicators()
This logs the list of indicators to the console. For example, the first several:
Available indicators:
total_oda_flow_net
total_oda_ge
total_oda_bilateral_flow_net
total_oda_bilateral_ge
total_oda_multilateral_flow_net
