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.

The Network of Women Leaders of Neuquén was formed in the province, a structure that strengthens the associativity and autonomy of women. UN Women contributed through the implementation of the Neuquinas with Impact project, in alliance with the provincial government and a local foundation, to the strengthening of leadership with a gender perspective in the province. The training program designed and implemented for these purposes was systematized in a Manual that hopes to contribute to the replication of the experience in the country and the region and that has 10 recommendations for the training of leadership with a gender perspective. In total, almost 500 women from the province of Neuquén strengthened their leadership in business, entrepreneurial and political profiles to practice with a gender perspective, between the first edition and the second edition of Neuquinas con Impacto. https://www.neuqueninforma.gob.ar/finalizo-la-segunda-edicion-de-neuquinas-con-impacto/ https://norteenlinea.com/argentina-y-el-mundo/la-segunda-edicion-de-neuquinas-con-impacto-cierra-con-la-presentacion-de-un-manual-para-impulsar-liderazgos-con-perspectiva-de-genero https://lac.unwomen.org/es/digital-library/publications/2023/11/liderazgos-con-perspectiva-de-genero-la-experiencia-de-neuquinas-con-impacto VIDEOS TESTIMONIOS https://unwomen-my.sharepoint.com/personal/dalia_pino_unwomen_org/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx?id=%2Fpersonal%2Fdalia%5Fpino%5Funwomen%5Forg%2FDocuments%2FVideos%20testimonios%20Neuquinas%20con%20impacto&ga=1 In addition, the RMAAM (the body integrated by high authorities of women's rights and gender issues in the countries of Mercosur) prioritized addressing violence against women politician in its programatic strategy for 2023, after its High Level Meeting held in Buenos Aires in May 2023, in the context of which UN Women organized a Forum on the interlinkages between gender-based violence - including political violence- and democracy consolidation.

UN Women contributed to this in two ways. First, the Regional Women's Conference for Latin America and the Caribbean was a key platform that positioned the issue of feminist foreign policy and made it possible to generate exchanges with key figures in the region. Secondly, UN Women developed advocacy in that context and in other events that took place at the regional level for the promotion of feminist foreign policy for the first time in Argentina.
