World Bank Income Classification:Low Income
The World Bank classifies economies for analytical purposes into four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high income. For this purpose it uses gross national income (GNI) per capita data in U.S. dollars, converted from local currency using the World Bank Atlas method, which is applied to smooth exchange rate fluctuations.
Least Developed Country:Yes
Since 1971, the United Nations has recognized LDCs as a category of States that are deemed highly disadvantaged in their development process, for structural, historical and also geographical reasons. Three criteria are used: per capita income, human assets, and economic vulnerability.
Gender Inequality Index:0.575
GII is a composite metric of gender inequality using three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market. A low GII value indicates low inequality between women and men, and vice-versa.
Gender Development Index:0.723
GDI measures gender inequalities in achievement in three basic dimensions of human development: health, education, and command over economic resources.

State institutions and decentralized governance bodies have strengthened capacities to design, coordinate, monitor, report and implement Global Commitments on GEWE (e.g CEDAW, BPFA, UNR1325, Maputo Protocol, DRR, recovery and resilience policy frameworks, processes and tools) informed by gender statistics, (aligned with CF 4.2 -SN Output 1.1.3)
In addition to results reported by UN Women field offices (shown here), results achieved in countries and territories through the United Nations Trust Fund to End Violence against Women (UNTF) are included in a non-duplicative manner in the global reporting on this indicator (see the Our Global Results page).

National Capacity is strengthened to produce, analyze, and use gender statistics for policy formulation, planning, monitoring, and reporting on gender equality and women empowerment (1.5.3)
The capacity of governments and stakeholders is strengthened to assess progress in implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action, and other global normative and policy frameworks
Key stakeholders actively participated and collaborated to put in place mechanisms to assess and monitor progress on the implementation of the Beijing Platform for action and other global norms such as the CEDAW, CSW and resolution 1325 in the country. UN Women played a crucial role in providing technical (sharing of key information and facilitating access to it; translation of key messages and documents; support with development of key documentation and ToRs) and financial support and by ensuring engagement of civil society and consultation on key events such as Generation Equality and CSW 66. Government and key stakeholders, especially women's and youth organizations were actively involved in the implementation and monitoring of the Beijing Platform for Action, and other normative such as Resolution 1325, CSW and CEDAW with the contribution of the CO. The CO provided support to government (Ministry of Gender, defense, and Police), in participating in CSW Africa consultation as well as support the translation of the Ministry Speech to participate in the CSW in New York.Disclaimer and notes
