# Project Overview
The Africa Economic Profile project is an automated Business Intelligence solution designed to generate country-level economic and governance profiles for African nations.
The solution combines data from multiple international organizations, automates data collection through APIs, processes and standardizes the information using Google Apps Script, and presents it through executive dashboards built in Google Sheets.
The project was developed for OpenGov Africa to provide decision-makers, researchers, and volunteers with a centralized platform for monitoring macroeconomic, institutional, and development indicators across African countries.
## 🌍 Live Interactive Dashboard
The complete interactive dashboard is available online in **Google Sheets**.
The file is shared in **read-only mode**, allowing users to explore the dashboards and interact with filters without modifying the original project.
