Data Description:
The Gender Inequality Index (GII) measures gender inequalities in three important aspects of human development: (1) reproductive health, measured by maternal mortality ratio and adolescent birth rates; (2) empowerment, measured by proportion of parliamentary seats occupied by females and proportion of adult females and males aged 25 years and older with at least some secondary education; and (3) economic status, expressed as labour market participation and measured by labour force participation rate of female and male populations aged 15 years and older.
Note the index can be separated into 5 indicators: Adolescent fertility rate; Maternal mortality ratio; Female and male population with at least secondary education; Female and male shares of parliamentary seats; Female and male labour force participation rates.
