Through the Global Gender Gap Report series, the
World Economic Forum has been quantifying the magnitude of gender-based disparities and tracking their progress over time. By providing a comprehensive framework for benchmarking global gender gaps, the Report reveals those countries that are role models in dividing their resources equitably between women and men, regardless of the overall level of those resources. The Report is used by
numerous universities, schools, researchers, media entities, businesses, governments and individuals as a tool for their work.
