i-icon 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. i-icon 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. i-icon 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. i-icon 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.

National and sub-national institutions and organisations have the commitment, knowledge and capacities to legislate, advocate, plan, implement and monitor policies to prevent and respond to SGBV and HP

Activities under this results area were paused while risk assessments and re-programming options were explored given the deterioration of the security situation in the lead-up to August 15th and the subsequent Taliban take-over of the country. A Concept Note for a “High-Level Religious Leaders’ Forum on Islam and Ending Violence Against Women & Girls in Afghanistan” was developed and a briefing note on “Faith-based approaches to prevent violence against women and girls and create peaceful families, homes and communities” was developed for the Ministry of Haj and Religious Affairs to engage religious leaders in primary prevention efforts. These documents will be used to inform (adapted) programming approaches in 2022.
