    Source Note: GDP per capita based on purchasing power parity (PPP"}). PPP GDP is
    gross domestic product converted to international dollars using purchasing power
    parity rates. An international dollar has the same purchasing power over GDP as
    the U.S. dollar has in the United States. GDP at purchaser's prices is the sum of
    gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes
    and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is
    calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for
    depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in constant 2011
    international dollars.

    Source Note: GDP per capita based on purchasing power parity (PPP"}). PPP GDP is
    gross domestic product converted to international dollars using purchasing power
    parity rates. An international dollar has the same purchasing power over GDP as
    the U.S. dollar has in the United States. GDP at purchaser's prices is the sum of
    gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes
    and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is
    calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for
    depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in constant 2011
    international dollars.

    Source: Education Statistics
 
 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    Source Note: This indicator brings together schooling and learning. It starts
    with the share of  children who haven't achieved minimum reading proficiency and
    adjusts it by the proportion of children who are out of school. The data used to
    calculate Learning Poverty has been made possible thanks to the work of the
    Global Alliance to Monitor Learning led by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics
    (UIS), which established Minimum Proficiency Levels (MPLs) that enable countries
    to benchmark learning across different cross-national and national assessments.
