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.

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.

Significant progress was achieved on this outcome in 2022, since 2,040 women affected by the 2017 earthquakes in Mexico have developed sustainable and innovative businesses , through Moving Forward for Equality , a training programme that increased their personal initiative and business capacities and face to face and virtual complementary activities (webinars, trade fairs) that increased their product and services positioning skills. They have increased their weekly sales by up to 40% and businesses in many cases have become the main household income. The formation of 30 cooperatives contributes to the continuity of their businesses and reactivate the local economy. 55 women entrepreneurs mentored 625 women, sharing their best practices, contributing to the development or strengthening of innovative, sustainable and time-saving businesses. In addition, the mentoring program was considered a safe space and contributed to the strengthening of effective and affective networks between women entrepreneurs allowing a wider community reach of the program. 87 women from Tlahuac, Xochimilco, Iztapalapa and Juchitan had access to mental health support and increased their capacities and tools to address stress, anxiety, depression and violence against women. Four communities and local economies have benefited from innovative and sustainable business, as well as from the creation of 30 cooperatives and collectives and the development of community disaster risk reduction plans, that promote community cohesion and commitments in favor of the community and the environment. More women hold leadership positions in Danone through the establishment and implementation of inclusive gender-responsive recruitment and career development measures in place (34% of directors and 42% of managers are women) Families benefit from the establishment of a new parental policy that promotes the co-responsibility, used by 75% of Danoners. Women from the Moving Forward Equality Program (Avancemos por la Igualdad-API) recognized their resilience and the capacities they’ve developed. " I really liked everything that was the commercialization of the products ," said Maria Dolores Belén Chávez, a woman from Oaxaca , about the dimension of the program that advises and trains business leaders in aspects related to the commercial. “ What caught my attention the most is learning in finance, the costing of the product. We already had the registered trademark, we already had the process, but only with this we reaffirmed it and I think that this helped me forget about the diagnosis that made me sad and allowed me to continue working ”, she considered. “ Learning how to afford a product, how to get it out, what the 'four Ps' of marketing were. Now I know everything about my product: the place, the price and then the other part of the publications, what a father! " Maria said. Women entrepreneurs could also interact with key representatives of private sector and government through activities in the International Women’s Day framework and their participation along more than 20 thousand women that joined the Bonafont Race to raise awareness towards the importance of women´s empowerment and equal opportunities. As part of the initiative, key partners from the private sector, the government, the media, and international organizations, joined the Run also proving its effectiveness as a tool for engaging key institutions with the empowerment of women and girls.Disclaimer and notes
