Description:

The data shows exports forecasts from the EIGE (2017) study on the "Economic Benefits of Gender Equality in the European Union".

Exports of goods and services are defined as the total value of goods leaving the statistical territory of a country (typically its economic territory).

Exports values are at constant 2014 prices, i.e. they are expressed in terms of the price level of the base year 2014.

The figures for each year are the percentage differences between the exports forecasted under each scenario and the exports forecasted under the baseline scenario.

The baseline scenario assumes that no additional improvements in gender equality will be achieved beyond what could be expected based on recent historical trends.

The data is presented according to five pathways. The term ‘pathway’ refers to a certain gender inequality, for which at least a theoretical link to macroeconomic performance has been established in the literature. For each pathway there is a 'slow progress scenario' and 'rapid progress scenario'.

  • Pathway 1: Narrowing the education gap - the gender gap in tertiary education. The slow progress scenario assumes a closure of gender gaps in computing by 2-14pp and a closure of the gender gap in engineering by 4-12 pp. Under the rapid progress scenario, progress is 5-14 pp and 9-12 pp respectively.

  • Pathway 2: Narrowing the activity gap. The slow progress scenario assumes a 0-13 pp reduction in the activity rate gap by 2030. Under the rapid progress scenario there is a 0-20pp reduction in the activity rate gap by 2030.

  • Pathway 3: Narrowing the pay gap. Under the slow progress scenario, there is a 0-5 pp reduction in the gender pay gap by 2030. Under the rapid progress scenario the reduction is 0-14pp.

  • Outcome [Pathway] 4: Fertility rates' . In the slow progress scenario there is a 0-5% increase in fertility rate by 2030 and 0-8% increase under the rapid progress scenario.

  • Pathway 5 combines all the above measures.
