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 2027, the most vulnerable populations, particularly women, girls, boys and people with special needs, improve: their food and nutrition security, management of natural resources and living environment, and strengthen their resilience to climate change including in areas affected by conflicts (Outcome 3 UNSDCF).
To contribute to the development and modernization of rural areas UNSDCF: The office intends to make a significant contribution through an increase in agro-silvicultural and fisheries production, the development of sustainable food systems and shock responsive social protection systems, better prevention and management of natural disasters and adaptation to the effects of climate change.

Common indicators are those that appear verbatim the same in at least two entities' results frameworks and are drawn, where possible, directly from other globally agreed frameworks.
Common
Complementary indicators are identified as those in the results framework that are not repeated verbatim in the results framework of another United Nations entity, but are related or provide different but complementary lenses or insights into the same issue, high-level result and/or area of complementary work, such as a Sustainable Development Goal target.

Rural women and youth in agricultural value chains have access to climate-resilient productive assets tailored to their needs, including access to land, quality inputs, water and energy, to increase their productivity
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. 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).

National and local disaster risk reduction mechanisms integrate the specific and strategic needs of women and girls from a gender-sensitive perspective to strengthen the resilience of women and girls to climate and security shocks
By 2027, the most vulnerable populations, particularly women, girls, boys and people with special needs, improve: their food and nutrition security, management of natural resources and living environment, and strengthen their resilience to climate change including in areas affected by conflicts (Outcome 3 UNSDCF).
women in Niger were severely affected by climate change. In March 2023, analysis of the Harmonized Framework in Niger estimated that, as a result of climate shocks, some 2,454,354 people are food insecure (phase 3 and +) and 398,060 people are under pressure (phase 2). From June to August 2023, it is estimated that almost 3.3 million people will be food insecure (phase 3 and +) and 7,341,355 people under pressure (phase 2). This poses a major challenge for the government and This poses a major challenge for the government and humanitarian actors. In response, UN Women has developed support programs, and mobilization is underway despite the political challenges that are becoming ever-present. and in 2023, o Another 400 beneficiaries have been strengthened to increase their economic resilience in the face of climate change and security crises. Priorities for supporting women, girls, people with disabilities, migrants, refugees, etc. of the year 2024 will be identified in the data collected from the database of 3468 interest groups listed in the regions of Diffa, Maradi, Niamey, Tahoua and Zinder.Disclaimer and notes
