Prindex - Global Property Rights Index - 2019/2020

Prindex stands for the Global Property Rights Index, an indicator of citizens' perceptions of the security of land and property rights. Prindex is an initiative of ODI and Land Alliance supported by Omidyar Network, DFID and other donors. 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, to support the achievement of secure property rights around the world.

An initial phase of development of the index and testing its application was carried out in ten countries during 2016 and 2017. After the development phase, the index was turned into globalized collections in 2018. In 2019, with data added to the Gallup World Poll, Prindex expanded to a total of 141 countries worldwide. In July of 2020, Prindex released comparative results from its data collection and found that almost 1 billion people worldwide feel that they are vulnerable to losing their house or property over the next five years.

For 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/.
