 ## Assignment
 
-The Red Sea shipping crisis is a global crisis that began in October 2023, when missile attacks on ships and tankers traversing the Red Sea caused hundreds of vessels to avoid the Suez Canal. The attacks are concentrated near the Bab al-Mandab Strait, a 20-mile-wide chokepoint for maritime traffic. The World Bank Country Economics teams in Egypt, Yemen, and Djibouti seek to monitor the status and impacts of the crisis on their respective and regional economies.

 # Introduction to the Data Lab
 
-The Data Lab supports World Bank operations -- lending, technical assistance, and economic reporting -- by coordinating ad-hoc teams of data analysts and specialists from across our organization. Through the Lab, teams solve global challenges using best practices in coding, code documentation, and data visualization. 
+The Data Lab supports World Bank operations -- lending, technical assistance, and economic reporting -- by coordinating ad-hoc teams of data analysts and specialists from across our organization. Through the Lab, teams solve global challenges using best practices in coding, code documentation, and data visualization.
 
 Unlike a traditional data analysis, which results in a single-use report or visualization, Data Lab products are designed to be customized, reused, and updated, thereby building the capacity of the World Bank and partner organizations to quickly deliver complex data science solutions to pressing global challenges.

 2. **Analytics**. Leveraging curated datasets, the team conducts analytics across a range of topics (e.g., understanding population movement in response to a crisis or monitoring trends in nighttime lights). Each analysis will include original code, documentation, links to original data sources (and/or information on how to access them), and a description of their limitations. Reference resources are also cited, where relevant.

 ## How Data Lab Projects are Managed
 
 1. **Dynamic, Web-Hosted Documentation**. Unless specified otherwise, all code and documentation used to produce the analytics is hosted in a project GitHub repository to facilitate reuse for future updates and projects, as well as to support collaboration and capacity building activities.
 
-   
+
 
 2. **Data Catalogue**. Where possible, all datasets used in the production of Data Goods are added as entries to the World Bank’s [Development Data Hub](https://datacatalog.worldbank.org/home), where they are tagged with meta data, license attributes, and access information.
 
-   
+
 
 3. **Internal Project Management and File Sharing System**. To facilitate project management across teams, the Lab creates a Project SharePoint, which includes project management information (work plan, milestones, check-in slides, log of hours charged, final report), related literature, data files, indicator tables, and links to resources, such as this documentation. The advantage of SharePoint for World Bank usage is that all contents are automatically encrypted and tagged as Official Use Only. The project SharePoint is accessible to project team members and, with permission, can be replicated as a basis for future project updates or for similar projects.
