The Millennium Development Goals Indicators Dashboard shows how the official UN MDG indicators could be used for assessing progress towards reaching the eight MDGs. The MDG Dashboard lets you access 76 indicators for over 200 countries from 1990 onwards - all in a handy 770 kBytes package. Even with a slow phone line (33kbits/s), the download will take less than three minutes. The MDG Dashboard contains also French and Spanish versions.
To install the Dashboard, go directly to <http://esl.jrc.it/dc/>.
