IEG World Bank Project Performance Ratings

Data as of Sep 30, 2024

This dataset contains all independent assessments and validations of World Bank projects carried out by the Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) in the last 20 years. This data is updated quarterly in addition to the annual update for IEG's Results and Performance of the World Bank Group (RAP).

Learn more at http://ieg.worldbankgroup.org/ratings.


Note: The data shows the latest evaluation i.e. if a project had multiple evaluations such as a Project Performance Assessment Report (PPAR), only the latest rating is included in the dataset.

Important Note

We recommend users to adopt API service option only for datasets exceeding a million records. For other datasets, kindly use the JSON link available on the "Actions and Tools" section which enables extraction of all the records at once.

JavaScript makes it super simple to fetch from an API endpoint.
fetch('https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00053&resourceId=RS00055&top=100&type=json')
    .then(response => {
        if (!response.ok) {
            throw new Error('');
        }
        return response.json();
    })
    .then(data => {
        // Do something with the response data
        // console.log(data);
    })
    .catch(error => {
        console.error('Error:', error);
    });
    
Python for easily work with data.
import requests
url = 'https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00053&resourceId=RS00055&top=100&type=json'
try:
    response = requests.get(url)
    response.raise_for_status()  # Raise an exception for 4XX and 5XX status codes
    data = response.json()  # Parse the JSON response
    print(data)  # Print the response data
except requests.RequestException as e:
    print(f'Error: {e}')
PowerShell code to extract data.
$url = 'https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00053&resourceId=RS00055&top=100&type=json'
try {
    $response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method Get
    # Print the response
    Write-Output $response
} catch {
    # Print error message if request fails
    Write-Error "Error: $_"
}
The following snippet brings data into your application.
require 'net/http'
url = URI('https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00053&resourceId=RS00055&top=100&type=json')
begin
response = Net::HTTP.get_response(url)
if response.is_a?(Net::HTTPSuccess)
    puts response.body
else
    puts "Error: #{response.code} - #{response.message}"
end
rescue StandardError => e
puts "Error: #{e.message}"
end
