Every published version, dated, with the figures that changed (old to new). All versions are built from the same CEB downloads (CEB data as published, reference year 2024, downloaded 2026-10). Recomputed automatically from the CSV files on 2026-11-01; no external human review yet.
| Version | Date | Changes |
|---|---|---|
| v1.6.2 | 2026-11-03 | social preview image (og:image, 1200x630, a capture of the portal) and large card for LinkedIn and X on the seven study pages; data unchanged |
| v1.6.1 | 2026-11-02 | series label Carta Blanca Economics on all study pages (Carta Blanca Labs stays as the umbrella); cinematic title intro on the portal (plays once per session, skippable, off with reduced motion); data unchanged from v1.6 |
| v1.6 | 2026-11-01 | visual uplift: portal restructured; light editorial theme for content pages with numbered exhibits, key takeaways and section index; reversible (flows-editorial.css) |
| v1.5.1 | 2026-11-01 | Interaction audit: every card that looks clickable now leads to its evidence; decorative boxes no longer look clickable. |
| v1.5.1 | 2026-11-01 | Release r6.1, four changes. (1) The arithmetic scenario chart "If the largest donor's share were absent" is removed from the Observatory (section 07) together with its data and metrics; the Observatory now has 29 charts (30 before). (2) The Funding Compact perimeter (UNDS) is corrected from 36 to 25 entities: the CEB entities that are members of the UN Sustainable Development Group, per the UNSDG member list on the DCO website (https://undco-p-unsdg-webapp.azurewebsites.net/about/who-we-are), checked 2026-11-01 (38 members, 25 of them in the CEB financial data). Moved out of scope: IAEA, ICAO, IMO, UPU, UNCCD, UNFCCC, UNICRI, UNITAR, UNSSC, UNU and UN Tourism (listed as UNWTO in older UNSDG lists, not on the current page); PAHO is WHO's regional office and not a separate member. (3) Archetypes replaced by nine groups covering all 48 entities, each with its own two-sentence context note. (4) New page: the 90-second brief (flows-brief.html), a one-screen entry point with three figures, one chart and an entity selector. |
| v1.5 | 2026-11-01 | Release r6 after four external audits. Errors of fact: country growth 2017-2024 now excludes UN peacekeeping (DPO), which reports by country only from 2019: Mali +406% to +38%, CAR +409% to +18%, DRC +241% to +88% (Ukraine +712% unchanged); Funding Compact indicator 7 relabelled as a Member State commitment; the two core-share denominators labelled everywhere; one shared SDG cleaning rule for flows.json and lens.json, exceptions published; government contributor labels kept as listed by the CEB, count 228 to 230 (Kosovo and Taiwan appear under two CEB labels); info button spacing; reporting status by latest year; PDF trend row fixed. Perimeter: Lens section 01 renamed "Funding Compact indicators, CEB approximation", disclaimer on every card, evaluative badges replaced by a neutral distance line, non-UNDS entities shown as not applicable, definitions table, UNDS list sourced, institutional context and right of reply, archetypes. Wording: "function not reported" reframed as a series break; revenue growth qualified (+72% nominal, +69% at constant perimeter); unrestricted funding 44.1% to 28.0% added; SDG range labelled "resources tagged by SDG" with the expenditure-only ratio 62×; section 03 neutral; ICSC salary section removed; HHI relabelled; publisher wording, dates and verification wording harmonised; HR labels merged; cleaned CSV tables published; reconciliation test added. |
| v1.4 | 2026-11-01 | Agency Lens (48 entities, Funding Compact approximation), per-entity PDF reports, right of reply, legibility pass. |
| v1.1 to v1.3 | 2026-11-01 | Audit corrections: government donor count 232 to 228 (spelling variants merged); SDG range recomputed to 69× (expenditure per entity-year, budget only where no expenditure is reported, WFP 2018 subtotal row dropped); the 61.4% figure corrected; two claims removed. |
| v1.0 | 2026-10-30 | Initial publication: portal, Key Findings, Story, Observatory, Methodology; every headline figure bound to flows.json. |
