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.

During the year 2023, with the support of UN Women, notable progress was recorded by Côte d'Ivoire in establishing inclusive governance systems and creating an institutional environment whose gender sensitivity tends to improve although structural challenges persist. Indeed, the operationalization of Law No. 2019-870 of October 14, 2019 promoting the representation of women in elected Assemblies (Quota law) began during the local elections of September 2023 with an exceptional decision of the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC), whose awareness of gender issues was made effective with the support of UN Women, continuous press conferences of questioning and advocacy of the monitoring committee for the consideration of the gender in electoral processes (MCGEP), supported by the country office, and the mobilization of the main electoral stakeholders on the need for harmonization of the quota law and the electoral code, obtained during a national consultation supported in May 2023 by UN Women in partnership with the National Democratic Institute. The application of this law on the quota allowed Côte d'Ivoire to record for the first time in its history an average rate of more than 30% of representation of women in local elected assemblies: 32.71% in municipal councils (compared to 15.43% in 2018) and 32.40% in regional councils (compared to 12.63% in 2018). Efforts also continued to enable Côte d'Ivoire to continue to maintain its rank as the leading African country in the operationalization of Resolution 1325. The 2nd generation of National Action Plan finalized in 2022 during a inclusive process was introduced for adoption by the Council of Ministers in 2023. The signatures necessary for scheduling this adoption at the table of the Council of Ministers were obtained in 2023 for adoption planned for the 1st quarter of 2024. It should also be noted that the level of influence of civil society organizations supported by UN Women continues to expand. Indeed, the number of processes influenced increased from 1 in 2022 to 2 in 2023. At the request of the Ministry in charge of National Cohesion, the Network of Women Peace Mediators of Côte d'Ivoire (REFEM-CI ) managed, through its local awareness raising and various informal meetings, to alleviate the tensions that existed between the populations so that the resumption of local elections took place peacefully in 9 of the 10 localities affected by the protests and the cancellation of the vote, and the results accepted by the stakeholders. In terms of establishing gender-sensitive strategic documents, support was provided for the development of the National Strategy for the Development of Statistics 2023-2027. In addition, the Ministry of Women, Families and Children has accumulated its capacity to coordinate gender issues, with support from UN Women, with the production of a statistical directory in order to guide the dynamic of strengthening the gender sensitivity of public and private interventions.Disclaimer and notes
