## TL;DR

This dataset is part of the Electric Sheep Africa catalog on Hugging Face. It is indexed for African data discovery with standardized metadata, loading guidance, provenance notes, and analyst-oriented context.

## What This Dataset Covers

Public datasets help analysts inspect structured evidence, build reproducible workflows, and compare patterns across domains.

Dataset context from the existing Hugging Face card: Mauritius - Social Protection and Labor Publisher: World Bank Group · Source: HDX · License: cc-by · Updated: 2026-03-27 Abstract Contains data from the World Bank's data portal. There is also a consolidated country dataset on HDX. The supply of labor available in an economy includes people who are employed, those who are unemployed but seeking work, and first-time job-seekers. Not everyone who works is included: unpaid workers, family workers, and students are often… See the full description on the dataset page: https://huggingface.co/datasets/electricsheepafrica/africa-world-bank-social-protection-and-labor-indicators-for-mauritius.

## How To Read This Dataset

- Start from the repository files and the dataset viewer when available.
- Treat the README context as a fast orientation layer; confirm variable definitions and units in the data files before modeling.
- Use explicit country columns when present. When geography is only implied by the title or source metadata, document that assumption in downstream analysis.
- Preserve missing values until you have a defensible imputation rule.

## Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-world-bank-social-protection-and-labor-indicators-for-mauritius")
print(ds)

split_name = next(iter(ds))
table = ds[split_name]
print(table.features)
print(table[:3])
```

### Convert To Pandas When Tabular

```python
from datasets import Dataset

first_split = ds[next(iter(ds))]
if isinstance(first_split, Dataset):
    df = first_split.to_pandas()
    print(df.head())
```

## Data Quality Notes

- This card was standardized from the Electric Sheep Africa Hugging Face metadata inventory.
- Exact schema, row counts, and source files should be inspected in the repository data files.
- Metadata gaps from the inventory: upstream_publisher.
- Do not infer policy meaning from labels alone; confirm definitions, units, and methods in the source material.

## Suggested Analyses

- Inspect schema and missingness before modeling.
- Profile variables by geography, time, and subgroup columns where present.
- Join with other Electric Sheep Africa datasets using explicit country, year, and indicator fields when available.
- Build reproducible notebooks that cite both the original source context and the Electric Sheep Africa Hugging Face repo.
