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.

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.
Complementary
UN Women reports on this indicator in a global scope, signified by "(Desk Review)" at the end of the indicator statement (see the Our Global Results page for the global result)
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
Strengthening of institutional systems and ecosystems capabilities to offer quality public services.
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).
More civil society organizations, networks and leaders have strengthened capacities to publicly influence violence prevention, assistance and elimination.

Services, policies and strategies for the prevention, assistance and elimination of gender-based violence are accessible, have good quality and leave no one behind.
Social organizations, women's movements, community organizations, and professionals dedicated to addressing situations of gender-based violence play a crucial role as the first line of response. One of the main outcomes of improving their capabilities from an intersectional perspective relies on the enhancing of quality and accessibility of services and also strengthens their long-term sustainability. UN Women conttributes to improve services and policies to assist and eliminate gender based violence throug technical assistance to governements at national and subnational level, as well as working closely with civil society organizations and feminist movements. The main outcome lies in the strengthening of these actors who, in articulation with policies and programs, expand opportunities for women to receive assistance and break the cycle of violence. Despite the economic crisis and governmental changes that have taken positions against the feminist agenda, the creation of a Subsecretariat for the Protection against gender-based violence, following the dissolution of the Ministry of Women, Genders, and Diversity, reflects the importance given to this issue and highlights the progress made in terms of visibility. At subnational level, the consolidation and sustainability of gender institutions in Salta (through the Secretary of Women, Genders, and Diversity) and in Jujuy (through the Provincial Women's Council) are significant results of the joint efforts on raising awareness and prioritizing the issue.Disclaimer and notes
