The files included contain the development data used in the modeling of the demographic transition. The WDI indicators dataset is publicly available at the World Bank data catalog. We use the 2010 dataset in our analysis. The Barro-Lee dataset provides information on educational attainment. We use average years of schooling for the female population as our education indicator in the paper.
