![enter image description here][3] In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has affected every corner of the globe, there is a critical need for understanding and mapping human movement in order to formulate appropriate scientific and policy responses. To this end, we provide ready-to-use indexes of human mobility spanning 131 countries and territories and 830 sub-national regions from 16 February 2020 to 29 March 2020. We extract these data from Google’s newly released mobility reports, which cover phone-tracking-based changes in mobility across several types of locations, including retail and recreation, grocery stores and pharmacies, parks, transit stations, workplaces, and private residences. We make these data available to the scientific community and the broader public immediately in order to support research into the COVID-19 pandemic. You can download the CSV file of the country-level data [here][1] and regional-level data [here][2]. Recommended citation for data: Chan, H.F., Ahmed, S., and Torgler, B. (2020).
