Discuss the findings derived from the Gender Inequality Index (GII).

What will be an ideal response?

The Gender Inequality Index (GII) is a composite measure of three dimensions: reproductive health (maternal mortality ratio and the adolescent fertility rate), empowerment (share of parliamentary seats held by each sex and secondary and higher education attainment levels), and labor (participation in the workforce). Over the past decade, reduction in gender inequality has been virtually universal, yet there remain significant gender gaps. Generally, gender inequality is highest in South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and the Arab states.
