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.

Strategic Note Outcome Progress NoteShowing data of :2022
By 2025, state institutions at all levels effectively design and implement gender-sensitive, human rights and evidence-based public policies and provide quality services in an inclusive, transparent and accountable manner (UNSDCF Outcome 2.2.)
The outcome has not been achieved, however, UN Women Kazakhstan made progress on the outcome in 2022. Gender Responsive Budgeting further advanced in the country with country office support. The country had access to evidence of gender sensitivity in current budgeting processes through a deep gender analysis of a local administration in the Akmola region and the Ministry of Education and Science. This analysis was provided by UN Women, in cooperation with the Ministry of National Economy. The findings of the analysis were widely disseminated by UN Women and partners, including its presentation at the High-Level Political Forum during Kazakhstan’s Voluntary National Review event in May 2022. The key findings of the gender analysis were published on the website of the High-Level Political Forum https://hlpf.un.org/countries/kazakhstan/voluntary-national-review-2022 . UN Women contributed to this result through its expert and technical support in revealing areas for further strengthening in the field of education, healthcare and social protection. UN Women provided recommendations based off of these trends in the planning and implementation of strategic and program documents. Almost all of the identified trends are applicable to all regions of the country in different variations and ratios. The development of additional capacity-building efforts will remain one of the priority tasks of state policy. UN Women strengthened partnerships with the Government of Kazakhstan as well as state and private expert institutions for ensuring comprehensive assessment and concrete recommendations for integrating gender aspects into the planning and budgeting processes at the local and national levels. It is expected by partners that Gender-responsive budget analysis, along with legislation, and other practical policy measures will address gender bias and discrimination. In a long run, it will have an impact and contribute to the accountability to women’s rights, but also towards greater public transparency and can shift economic policies leading to gains across communities. UN Women in cooperation with the National Women’s Machinery plan to continue the further promotion of Gender Responsive Budgeting in 2023, and a new project proposal has been submitted to the Government of Kazakhstan, thus the original strategy and ToC for this outcome is largely still applicable.
