What is MPOWER?
WHO's six-point tobacco control policy framework, scored per country and per measure on a 1-4 scale (or no data) in the Global Tobacco Epidemic report series.
The GHO MPOWER bulk zip ships roughly 369,000 rows across 29 data CSVs covering reporting rounds since 2007.
In this catalog it appears concretely: - WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic 2023. - WHO Global Health Observatory Legacy Data Repository - Tobacco [tag: mpower]. - HealthData.org - Tobacco Disease & Injury Factsheets Data [tag: mpower].
Why does MPOWER matter when choosing a dataset?
Conventions decide whether two sources can be joined at all. Buy one side of an analysis that ignores this convention and every reconciliation step — calendar alignment, unit conversion, entity matching — lands on your team instead of the vendor's.
The failure mode is concrete: the label appears in a listing, the delivered files tell a different story, and the gap surfaces mid-project when fixing it is most expensive.
You rarely have to take a vendor's word for it. 82.4% of the 1,744 datasets Datadory catalogs are free to access, and WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic 2023 lets you inspect the real artifact before any budget is committed.
How do you evaluate MPOWER in a data source?
Treat every claim of this attribute as testable:
- Open WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic 2023 and compare its listing against the delivered artifact before paying for a commercial equivalent.
- Open WHO Global Health Observatory Legacy Data Repository - Tobacco [tag: mpower] and compare its listing against the delivered artifact before paying for a commercial equivalent.
- Open HealthData.org - Tobacco Disease & Injury Factsheets Data [tag: mpower] and compare its listing against the delivered artifact before paying for a commercial equivalent.

What is an example of MPOWER?

Is data described as "MPOWER" free to use?
Treat access and permission separately. 82.4% of the 1,744 datasets in this catalog are free to access, but 235 are freemium and 61 are paid outright, so confirm both the price and the license on the exact distribution before building on it.
How do I verify a source really provides MPOWER?
Open WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic 2023 next to WHO Global Health Observatory Legacy Data Repository - Tobacco [tag: mpower] and compare the promise with the download. Field definitions are verified for 1495 of 1,744 datasets (85.7%), which makes that check fast inside the catalog and manual outside it.
