    Abstract

    Aqui esta el abstract: The Country-Level Institutional Assessment and Review (CLIAR) Benchmarking Dashboard is an analytical tool designed to support the comparative assessment of institutional capacity across countries and over time. It consolidates harmonized indicators from multiple public data sources into a single, integrated framework for policy implementation analysis. The CLIAR dashboard enables users to assess patterns across core government functions in a structured, comparable, and policy-relevant framework. Benchmarking against peer groups helps reveal institutional strengths, diagnose bottlenecks, and inform reform priorities.
    The reproducibility package contains two integrated components. First, it includes the data pipeline that extracts, cleans, harmonizes, and compiles the underlying indicators used in the analysis. Second, it provides the dashboard application that transforms the processed data into interactive visualizations and benchmarking outputs. Together, these components enable the CLIAR data and user interface to be transparently reproduced, independently audited, and systematically updated.

    Reproducibility

    Technology environment

    Paper exhibits were reproduced on a computer with the following specifications:

    • Memory available: 24 GB
    Technology requirements

    Runtime data construction: 10 minutes
    Runtime app: 1 minute
    Reproduction instructions

    The Country Level Institutional Assessment and Review (CLIAR) Dashboard is currently published as an internal World Bank product, accessible at datanalytics-int.worldbank.org/CLIAR. However, both underlying repositories are publicly available on GitHub, and any user can reproduce and run the dashboard locally by following the instructions below.

    The project has two components: a data pipeline that processes the underlying data, and a dashboard application that visualizes it. Because this is a live dashboard, the reproducibility team has verified specific releases for each component to ensure a stable, citable snapshot of the code. When reproducing results, always use the exact releases linked below, not the latest versions of each repository, which may have changed. You can compare the verified releases to the current live versions to see how the dashboard has evolved since verification.

    1. Component 1: Data Pipeline
    • The data pipeline (ETL) package processes the raw data and prepares it for the dashboard. The repository is available at github.com/WB-PIDA-Data-Science-Shop/cliaretl, and the verified release is v3.1.
    • To run the data pipeline, open the R project file cliaretl.Rproj, restore the package environment by running renv::restore() in the R console and following the prompts, then open 00-cliaretl.R and run the script.
    1. Component 2: Dashboard Application
    • The dashboard application is a Shiny app that visualizes the processed data. The repository is available at github.com/WB-PIDA-Data-Science-Shop/cliarapp, and the verified release is v3.1.
    • To run the dashboard, open the R project file cliarapp.Rproj, restore the package environment by running renv::restore() in the R console and following the prompts, then open global.R and run the app. This will launch a local instance of the dashboard identical to the verified release. While the hosted version is internal to the World Bank, any user can reproduce and run the dashboard locally using this repository.
    1. Reproducibility verification
    • The two components are connected: the data pipeline (Component 1) produces the input data consumed by the dashboard application (Component 2).
    • Reproducibility was verified by running the ETL pipeline at release v3.1 and confirming that its outputs match the input data used by the dashboard at release v3.1.
    • A data comparison file documenting this check is included in the reproducibility package (comparison_report.csv).
