After a successful trial, the University Library has acquired permanent access to the World Religion Database. The World Religion Database contains data on 18 major religious categories, including atheists and agnostics.
The World Religion Database (WRD) contains detailed statistics on religious affiliation for every country of the world. It provides information from country censuses as well as best estimates for every religion to offer a definitive picture of religion and non-religion in the past, present, and future.
The WRD offers estimates for each of the world’s religions (18 categories, including atheists and agnostics) for the period 1900 to 2050. The WRD will be updated with new information as it becomes available, such as estimates of religious affiliation at province levels and religious freedom information for all countries.
