| Résumé : |
To help understand the dynamics of gender equality and how it affects Africa’s development, the African Development Bank Group and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) are publishing the first Africa Gender Equality Index. The Index, which covers 51 of Africa’s 54 countries and draws together a large body of data, offers a snapshot of the economic, social and representation gaps between men and women.
Its findings will give African leaders, policymakers, economists and civil society the evidence they need to begin dismantling the barriers that prevent women from making a full contribution to the continent’s development. In addition, the report identifies five thematic areas where concerted action could make a real difference to women’s ability to contribute to, and benefit from, Africa’s development — areas that African countries, the Bank and UNECA can readily incorporate into national development strategies and investment programmes. |
