Description:

Developed at EIGE, The Gender Equality Index is a unique measurement tool that synthesises the complexity of gender equality as a multi-dimensional concept into a user-friendly and easily interpretable measure. The Index measures gender gaps across a range of indicators and combines these into a single score ranging from 0, representing total gender inequality, to 100, full gender equality.

The Gender Equality Index comprises six core domains (work, money, knowledge, time, power, and health) and two additional domains (intersecting inequalities and violence). Given the different nature of the latter two domains, only the core domains can be used in the computation of the Index scores.

The Index is computed as follows. First, gender gaps are calculated for all constituent indicators. Next, gaps for closely related indicators are combined to obtain subdomain scores. The subdomain scores are then combined to obtain domain scores. Finally, the domain scores are combined to obtain the overall Index score.

Note that the indicators used to calculate the overall Index, domain, and subdomain scores are reported according to the year the Gender Equality Index was published, rather than the year data that the underlying data refer to. The latest available (and complete) data at the time of the Index calculation are used for each indicator. For example, the 2025 Gender Equality Index was mostly based on data referring to 2024 but for some indicators data refer to 2023 or earlier depending on availability.

A table detailing the specific data used to calculate each edition of the Gender Equality Index is available from the link below. It lists each of the indicators used under each domain/subdomain of the Index, the reference year of the data used, and details of any exceptions (e.g. when a different year is used for certain countries or when there is a break in the time-series).
