The Global Gender Gap Report 2014
The Global Gender Gap Index was first introduced by the World Economic Forum in 26 as a framework for capturing the magnitude of gender-based disparities and tracking their progress. This year is the 9th edition of the Index,allowing for time-series analysis on the changing patterns of gender equality around the world and comparisons between and within countries. The Index benchmarks national gender gaps on economic,political,education and health criteria,and provides country rankings that allow for effective comparisons across regions and income groups. The rankings are designed to create greater awareness among a global audience of the challenges posed by gender gaps and the opportunities created by reducing them. The methodology and quantitative analysis behind the rankings are intended to serve as a basis for designing effective measures for reducing gender gaps.
