Indicator (long name):
Global Gender Gap Index
Indicator (short name):
GGGI
Definition:
The Global Gender Gap Index was first introduced by the World Economic Forum in 2006 as a framework for capturing the magnitude of gender-based disparities and tracking their progress over time. It measures gender parity on a scale from 0 (disparity) to 1 (parity) across four thematic dimensionsthe subindexes Economic Participation and Opportunity, Educational Attainment, Health and Survival, and Political Empowerment. The methodology of the Index has remained stable since its original conception in 2006, providing a basis for robust cross-country and time-series analysis. There are three basic concepts underlying the Global Gender Gap Index, forming the basis of how indicators were chosen, how the data is treated and how the scale can be used. First, the Index focuses on measuring gaps rather than levels. Second, it captures gaps in outcome variables rather than gaps in input variables. Third, it ranks countries according to gender equality rather than women's empowerment.
