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.

Strengthened policy and financial environment to enable gender-responsive national adaptation and effective monitoring of the SDGs
Some progress was made towards the achievement of outcome 1.6 in 2022. UN Women supported the High Commission for Planning (HCP) in building capacities of statistics producers and in developing an interactive database on gender statistics and studies ("StatsGenre"). The database was officially launched within the framework of International Women’s Day on March 10, 2022 supported with infographics to create an enabling environment for data information and knowledge dissemination. Media coverage this initiative enabled a wider audience to access the work of the HCP on gender statistics and will influence gender-responsive national adaptation and effective monitoring of the SDGs.Disclaimer and notes
