| dc.description.notes | General Overview: The Global Gender Gap Index can be used to measure the degree of gender inequality in access to resources and opportunities in a country, independent of its level of development. The index is calculated based on a country's performance in four different areas: economic participation and opportunity, educational attainment, political empowerment, and health and survival. This is the fourth annual report on the Global Gender Gap Index.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: The report is divided into two sections. Part 1 explains how the Global Gender Gap Index is measured and outlines global and regional trends. It ranks countries' overall performance since 2006, as well as their 2009 performance on the four subindexes. It concludes with discussions on the relationship between gender equality and economic development, and on the compatibility of marriage, motherhood and work in the countries included in the report.<br/ ><br/ >Part 2 of the report contains individual profiles of the 134 countries included in the 2009 report. It presents the original data used to calculate the index, as well as other country-specific variables.<br/ ><br/ >In 2009, Australia had a score of 0.7282 on the Global Gender Gap Index (where 0 is inequality and 1 is equality) and was ranked 20 in the world. The report notes that Australia improved its economic and opportunity participation score, which it attributes to increased labour force participation and a reduced wage gap between men and women. | en |
