Global Gender Gap Index

The Global Gender Gap Index is a measure created by the World Economic Forum to assess gender equality across countries. It evaluates how well nations are bridging the gender gap in areas like economic participation, education, health, and political empowerment. A higher score indicates greater gender equality, meaning women have better access to jobs, education, and leadership roles relative to men. The index helps governments and organizations identify disparities, track progress over time, and promote policies aimed at achieving more equal opportunities for all genders.
