Open Brazil is an interactive and user-friendly online platform that provides information about the current Country Partnership Framework (CPF) for Brazil. Open Brazil is intended to make the work of the World Bank Group (WBG) more accessible, or open, to an external and internal audience, providing intuitive insights into the rationale and logic of WBG activities as well as regular (and where possible real-time) monitoring of results achieved on the ground. Open Brazil leverages new technologies including Big Data, Open Data, remote sensing (e.g. satellite images), social media, and smart supervision tools. The platform also includes an innovative dashboard that can be used to track the impact of COVID-19 on specific sectors of the economy. As the COVID-19 pandemic fundamentally altered the development challenge in early 2020, the platform was expanded to include a COVID19 response section, which includes not only a dashboard with real-time, automatically updating indicators, but also an interactive story map, and displays all specific WBG operations related to COVID-19.
