This indicator measures the total volume of Official Development Assistance (ODA) extended to developing nations, expressed in constant 2020 U.S. dollars, allowing for consistent year-over-year comparisons. Net ODA consists of financial contributions—both grants and concessional loans—that support a diverse array of initiatives aimed at
fostering sustainable economic growth and improving living standards in recipient countries recognized by the OECD/DAC. This metric not only reflects the financial commitment of donor countries but also serves as a vital indicator of progress toward global development goals. By adjusting for inflation, this measure underscores changes in the real value of assistance, highlighting its impact on addressing poverty, enhancing education, and supporting health initiatives over time.
