AIDA stands for Aid Information Data Analytics and is a data services platform for aid professionals, who are interested to explore, analyse and use (public) data sources in an easy to use application.

AIDA is an initiative by The Open Data Company B.V., a joint venture of Zimmerman B.V. and Data4Development B.V. Learn more about us here.

AIDA is for professionals in the development aid sector: Project & Policy Officers, Program Managers, Fund Managers, Researchers, Embassy staff, Journalists. In short, anybody who has an interest in 'who' funds 'what, where and when' and who is curious about the effect or 'impact' of the development aid.

Yes, on top of building data capacity within your organisation, you can make use of what is already available. AIDA can be used to visualise available IATI data and get insight into who is funding and implementing what in which country and sectors and with which partners.

IATI is the core of the platform as it is one of the more mature aid data standards available. We view IATI as an important means to provide transparency on the actors in the development aid chain. AIDA now enables you to benchmark your own data against the data of other publishers. The future ambition is to combine various data sources on this platform.

If you decide to cancel your AIDA subscription, your published IATI data will no longer be available and linked to the IATI registry. As you will not have access to the data management functionalities once your licence is up, you need to download the XML-file(s) from AIDA, add it to a public environment (e.g. Google Drive) and republish it on the IATI registry before your licence term runs out. If you do not republish, your dataset(s) will no longer be publicly available. Follow this instruction document to change the URL of your IATI dataset(s).

If you wish to cancel your licence, send us an email at info@aida.tools.
