TAILIEUCHUNG - Women’s Empowerment: Measuring the Global Gender Gap

Encouraging country ownership and strengthening health systems: Ultimately, governments – together with non- governmental organizations (NGOs), civil society organizations (CSOs) including affected communities, faith-based organizations (FBOs), the private sector and others in countries – must decide upon their countries’ health needs and strategies. They are responsible for making and sustaining progress, and they must be accountable to those served by their health systems. Accordingly, a core principle of GHI is to support country ownership, encouraging governments to engage with stakeholders at the national, provincial, district and community levels as they develop and implement their country health plans and strategies | Women s Empowerment Measuring the Global Gender Gap Augusto Lopez-Claros World Economic Forum Saadia Zahidi World Economic Forum World Economic Forum 91-93 route de la Capite CH-1223 Cologny Geneva Switzerland Telephone 41 0 22 869 1212 Fax 41 0 22 786 2744 E-mail contact@ 2005 World Economic Forum All rights reserved.

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM Women s Empowerment Measuring the Global Gender Gap COMMITTED TO IMPROVING THE STATE OF THE WORLD Overview The Status of Women Current Reality This study1 is a first attempt by the World Economic Forum to assess the current size of the gender gap by measuring the extent to which women in 58 countries have achieved equality with men in five critical areas economic participation economic opportunity political empowerment educational attainment and health and well-being. Countries that do not capitalize on the full potential of one half of their societies are misallocating their human resources and undermining their competitive potential. Consolidating publicly available data from international organizations national statistics and unique survey data from the World Economic Forum s Executive Opinion Survey the study assesses the status accorded to women in a broad range of countries. Even in light of heightened international awareness of gender issues it is a disturbing reality that no country has yet managed to eliminate the gender gap. Those that have succeeded best in narrowing the gap are the Nordic countries with Sweden standing out as the most advanced in the world. These are followed by New Zealand 6 Canada 7 United Kingdom 8 Germany 9 and Australia 10 countries that have made considerable progress in recent decades in removing obstacles to the full participation of women in their respective societies.
