Development Database on Aid from DAC Members: DAC online

The DAC database is accessible through two interfaces:

• The OECD.STAT browser for users familiar with the DAC database;
• The new wizard QWIDS (Query Wizard for International Development Statistics) pulls data from OECD.STAT and offers an intuitive interface for users less familiar with the structure and content of the DAC database.
