Supplementary notes

The index measures the level of academic freedom in a country based on five dimensions: freedom to research and teach, institutional autonomy, academic exchange and dissemination, campus integrity, and academic and cultural expression. Based on their rankings across these dimensions, countries are given scores from zero to one, where one indicates the highest possible level of academic freedom.
