Hi,
I was browsing a dataset on the registry, and saw for the first time (did I just miss it before?) some thematic tags, in this case “child rights” and “gender equality” - please can I ask where these come from, and what are they used for? Is there a codelist for the tags somewhere?
Thanks!
Hi matmaxgeds users on the Registry can add tag(s) to the dataset they upload. They are all listed here https://www.iatiregistry.org/tag but there isn’t a codelist for it as it is a registry-only convenience feature
thanks Samuele Mattiuzzo - maybe once there is some breathing room next year we can figure out whether they are useful, if they make sense etc, or even if they are accurate!
They don’t seem to be retrieved with the results when inspecting a specific dataset’s contents, so I guess it’s harmless to have them there. They have been manually typed by users, so I guess for them are a useful way of tagging and retrieving a piece of information they need.
But agreed, this is one for another time!
