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.

By 2025, the Mexican State strengthens its capacities for adaptation and resilience to climate variability and change through multisectoral policies, programs, tools and services, with a focus on the most vulnerable groups and territories; consolidating the perspectives of interculturality, human rights and gender, which consider the integral management of water, disaster risks and based on the sustainable management of terrestrial, coastal and marine ecosystems.
Public institutions generate policies for women's economic empowerment, both to adapt to climate change and human mobility as to promote local resilience in situations of high vulnerability, local institutions have stronger capacities to respond to climate change and natural disasters, and civil society organizations are vocal and advocate for more effective and gender-responsive risks management so more women, in contexts of vulnerability to disasters, develop innovative and sustainable businesses.

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).
Data reported for 2022 results against this indicator was obtained as part of a learning process on social norms and therefore may not accurately reflect the results obtained. Internal reviews of data collected on social norms across relevant indicators, coupled with external reviews, are informing the design of UN Women’s principled approach to social & gender norms change. This will be reflected in changes to the indicators to be introduced in the Mid-Term Review of the Strategic Plan.

With the support of UN Women, trough the Moving Forward for Equality Program, more women in post-disaster recovery contexts, develop innovative and sustainable businesses to reactivate local economies and build livelihoods and resilience. Pillar 1 of this program promotes the empowerment of women in some of the areas affected by the earthquakes of September 2017 in Mexico City and Oaxaca. 2,040 women affected by the 2017 earthquakes and the COVID 19 pandemic in four municipalities (Tlahuac, Iztapalapa, Xochimilco and Juchitan) have acquired tools and increased personal and entrepreneurial capacities to reactivate and develop innovative, sustainable, and time-saving businesses. These women improved their knowledge on disaster risk reduction and have strengthened their participation in the development of disaster risk reduction and prevention community plans. So far, participating women increased their weekly gross sales by up to 40%; 240 women strengthened resilience capacities and 294 women now have tools for their health mental; and more than 20 cooperatives have been created. The mentoring program has trained 40 mentors who accompanied 440 women; the program also promoted visibility and assessment of care work and the redistribution of roles and workloads care work within households. Many of the businesses within the program have become the main household income. Pillar 2 of Moving Forward for Equality promoted gender equality within Danone in Mexico. Within the company there are now more women in leadership positions, reaching 41%; there are 34% of women in management positions; flexible work schemes have been promoted within the company; parental policy, including leave for primary and secondary caregivers, as well as lactation rooms, were promoted too; and staff have been trained in of gender stereotypes and diversity. Pillar 3 of Moving Forward for Equality consists of raising awareness about equal employment opportunities between men and women. Danone has been promoted as champion for gender equality in international forums and spaces such as Más Cartagena and the WEPS. The Alliance has had a great impact on the brand equity of the company. UN Women strengthened their interagency collaboration with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) through a virtual fair where 65 companies participated, and more than 22 thousand people attended it. Both UN Agencies also worked on knowledge sharing products such as the brief "Rights- based and gender-sensitive supply chains".Disclaimer and notes
