i-icon 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. i-icon 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. i-icon 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. i-icon 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.

Strategic Note Outcome Progress Note Showing data of : 2022

Evidence and norms on gender equality and empowerment of women and girls are promoted by government and civil society.

The Country Gender Equality Profile (CGEP) was launched in March 2022 under the patronage of the IMC Chair and was organized in cooperation with the Economic Social Council. The UN Women supported its development to be a primary source for evidence-driven advocacy and programming for national stakeholders, international development partners and the UN System to advance the gains and overcome bottlenecks at the national, regional, and global level based on both statistical and qualitative data. The CGEPs was developed in an inclusive manner, ensuring participation of the national statistical office (NSO) and with the ministries responsible for action on and monitoring of the SDGs in key thematic areas (e.g. health, education, defence and justice). Civil society and gender equality advocates at all levels and, within this, ensuring that marginalized groups most at risk of being left behind is represented like the Higher Council for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. As the profile provides valuable in-depth analysis of the different social and economic challenges faced by women and girls, this can be used as a tool to inform evidence-based decision making at the national level. https://jordan.unwomen.org/en/digital-library/publications/2022/03/general-framework-for-gender-equality-in-jordan
