Three criteria are used: per capita income, human assets, and economic vulnerability.Gender Inequality Index:0.575GII is a composite metric of gender inequality using three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market.

Strategic Note Outcome Progress NoteShowing data of :
2022
A strengthened knowledge based and innovative organization for high quality of programes
he first Gender Equality Profile in Ecuador was finalized and delivered to government, civil society, private sector, among others. This knowledge product was led by UN WOMEN as leadership of Gender Interagency Working Group and was design with the participation and validation of relevant stakeholder of public and private sector and civil society. The Country Gender Profile its organized in seven sections: (1) Poverty, hunger, and social exclusion; (2) Health; (3) Education; (4) Gender-based violence; (5) Work and care; (6) Participation; and (7) Environment, to present the advances, challenges and targets on gender equality in the Country. Planning, monitoring and evaluation actions was developed in this year regarding planning, the office developed a New Strategic Note for the period 2023 – 2026 focusing on women´s empowerment, climate change and violence eradication, an important input to this corporate planning instrument was the lessons learned and the recommendations identified in the Strategic Note 2019 – 2022 Evaluation . 3. Implementation of the Knowledge Management Strategy was continued, in 2022 the Ecuador office team developed a total of 25 knowledge products including studies, diagnoses, baselines, reports, among others, also a local repository was developed in accordance with regional knowledge repository. It is important to emphasize that during 2022 the knowledge generated by the projects was replicated by the beneficiaries as the Masculinites in Movement Metodology, also a Safe Cities knowledge product was completed. The knowledge product is a compilation of the experience of 10 years of program implementation in Ecuador and includes the best practices of the 4 pillars of intervention in the cities of Quito, Cuenca and Guayaquil: i) regulations and policies, ii) data, iii) investment in infrastructure with a gender focus, and iv) change of social norms.
Another important aspect to consider is that the construction of biannual work for the planning of 2023- 2024 was done with a comprehensive vision with each of the projects on the frame of the new Strategic Note 2023 - 2026, generating information at the programmatic, procurement and communication levels, which will allow a collaborative implementation through identified common lines of action. As an effect of the improvement in the programmatic implementation capacity of the UN Women Ecuador office in 2022 new contracts signed for the implementation of “Capacities for peace, security and violence reduction in Ecuador” project funded by the Peacebuilding Fund ($613,000), and “Strengthening of rural women's identities in the Metropolitan District of Quito” project ($300,000).
