<h1>Media Map Shows Impact of Information </h1>
<p>Dear Christian,</p>
<p>How do we know that media make a difference? We've looked
at the numbers. </p>
<p> The <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://e2ma.net/go/7381497769/208771197/230134518/1406122/goto:http://www.mediamapresource.org"
target="_blank">Media Map Project</a>, a multi-faceted
research collaboration between Internews and The World
Bank Institute, has made 25 data sets which collectively
touch on every country in the world and up to 30 years'
worth of information available to the public for download
and analysis. Visualizations on the site allow viewers to
interact with and test the data in different ways.</p>
<p> For example:</p>
<ul type="disc">

target="_blank">Map the Numbers</a> shows how
country-by-country scores change over time for indices
like the Voice and Accountability score from the World
Governance Indicators, number of Internet Users per
100 people, and Donor Spending on Communications.
Countries' scores are compared to regions of the
world, to provide context.</p>

target="_blank">Chart the Numbers</a> allows users
to see trends within data, such as correlations
between a country's engagement with ICTs and its
economic prosperity. Charting GDP along with the CIRI
measure of Freedom of Speech and Press, for example,
shows a positive correlation between the two.</p>

target="_blank">Graph the Numbers</a> presents unique
data sets that show measurements unavailable elsewhere.
The Cash for News Coverage and Bribe Payers Indices, two
of the sets displayed, are one-time studies that present
a rich resource for researchers interested in
understanding influence in the media. </li>

<p>"We're thrilled to be able to offer this data to the
public," said Tara Susman-Peña, Director of Research for
the Media Map Project at Internews. "By seeking out and
streamlining the data available, putting it all in one
place, and making it easy for anyone to draw comparisons
with the visualization tools, we hope to encourage and
support greater investigation into the role of information
and media in governance and in development around the
world."</p>
<p> With funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates
Foundation, The Media Map Project aims to better
understand the interrelations between media development
and outcomes in governance and economic development. The
