Data refer to the most recent year available during the period specified.
|
|
b.
|
Data for 1990 refer to estimates produced by UNESCO Division of Statistics based on data prior to 1990; data for 2003 refer to national literacy estimates from censuses or surveys conducted between 2000 and 2004, unless otherwise noted. Due to differences in methodology and timeliness of underlying data, comparisons across countries and over time should be made with caution. For more details, see http://www.uis.unesco.org/ev.php?ID=4930_201&ID2=DO_TOPIC.

|
c.
|
The net enrolment ratio is the ratio of enrolled children of the official age for the education level indicated to the total population of that age. Net enrolment ratios exceeding 100% reflect discrepancies between these two data sets.
|
|
d.
|
Data on net enrolment ratios refer to the 2002/03 school year, and data on children reaching grade 5 to the 2001/02 school year, unless otherwise specified. Data for some countries may refer to national or UNESCO Institute for Statistics estimates. For details, see http://www.uis.unesco.org/. Because data are from different sources, comparisons across countries should be made with caution.
|
|
e.
|
Enrolment ratios are based on the new International Standard Classification of Education, adopted in 1997 (UNESCO. 1997. International Standard Classification of Education 1997. [http://portal.unesco.org/uis/TEMPLATE/pdf/isced/ISCED_A.pdf]. Accessed March 2005.), and so may not be strictly comparable with those for earlier years.

* This table presents data for countries included in Parts I and II of the Development Assistance Committee's (DAC) list of aid recipients (OECD, Development Asistance Committee. 2005. DAC Journal: Development Cooperation 2004 Report. Paris). The denominator conventionally used when comparing official development assistance and total debt service to the size of the economy is GNI, not GDP (see the definitions of statistical terms). GDP is used here, however, to allow comparability throughout the table. With few exceptions the denominators produce similar results.
