# Development Gateway #  Since 2000, Development Gateway: An IREX Venture (DG) has built tools, systems, and dashboards that make development data easier to gather, use, and understand. We enhance transparency and efficiency in agriculture, health, extractives, information management, and cross-cutting global policy fields. Our partnerships with governments, institutions, and communities help ensure they have the information needed to make or shape decisions. We identify barriers to and solutions for increased data use, and apply in-the-weeds knowledge to incorporate rigorous learnings and inform the global community. Our mission is to tackle world's toughest challenges, high quality, complete, useful data is required. Development Gateway researches data ecosystems to identify incentives and barriers to data use; builds technical tools to support data analysis, visualization, and management; and advises on data strategy and policy to strengthen data-driven decision-making. We believe that lasting change can be achieved by understanding and improving motivation for data use; addressing power dynamics and political barriers to collaboration and evidence use; and increasing trust between institutions and the communities they serve.
