Missing does not mean zero, and it does not imply poor performance. Coverage differs by indicator and country. Open a layer page for the definition and methodology.

How to read this profile
This page synthesizes existing OurBlueDot observations for Uruguay. It is not a composite country score and does not establish causal relationships.
Observation periods and sources vary by indicator. Comparable-sample ranks include only countries with a finite value for that indicator and period, and are not a ranking of every country. Read what a rank means.
Read the methodology and sources for how layers are selected, labelled, and left grey when a source does not publish a comparable value. Why some countries appear grey explains that missing colour is not zero and not a judgment.
