Prindex stands for the Global Property Rights Index, an indicator of citizens' perceptions of the security of land and property rights. It aims to fill the gap in information about individual perception of tenure security, by creating a baseline global dataset covering more than 100 countries by the end of 2019, to support the achievement of secure property rights around the world.
This dataset portfolio shows a selection of the key 2018 Prindex indicators for 15 countries (Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Costa Rica, Ivory Coast, Ecuador, Honduras, Liberia, Madagascar, Mozambique, Namibia, Peru, Rwanda, Senegal, Thailand and Zambia) but additional information about the methodology and the questionnaire, as well as the full data are available on the new Prindex website: https://www.prindex.net/.
Results from the first 15 countries shows that 1 in 4 people feel insecure about their land and property rights.
