The IDB has released Mapping the Majority - a neat online interactive mapping tool and database capturing data about Latin America's 'bottom of the pyramid'. Much of our Doing Business data is used. It was just launched, so has its bugs - but hopefully they will be ironed out in time for their Building Opportunity for the Majority conference. More via Rob Katz.
Related, PovertyNet recently held an event on poverty maps, More Than A Pretty Picture: Using Poverty Maps to Design Better Policies and Interventions. Video, presentations and some neat examples all online.
