# Web Index

The Web Index was a composite statistic designed and produced by the World Wide Web Foundation as a pilot project over a three year period. It was the first multi-dimensional measure of the World Wide Web's contribution to development and human rights globally. It covered 86 countries from 2012-2014, with an announcement in November 2015 that the index had finished being compiled. It incorporated indicators that assess the areas of universal access, freedom and openness, relevant content, and empowerment, which indicate economic, social, and political effects of the Web.
