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.
i-icon Population:209,497,025 Source of population data: United Nations, Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division (2022). World Population Prospects: The 2022 Revision Male:19,976,265 (9.5%) Female:189,520,760 (90.5%)

Data reported for 2022 results against this indicator was obtained as part of a learning process on social norms and therefore may not accurately reflect the results obtained. Internal reviews of data collected on social norms across relevant indicators, coupled with external reviews, are informing the design of UN Women’s principled approach to social & gender norms change. This will be reflected in changes to the indicators to be introduced in the Mid-Term Review of the Strategic Plan. 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).

Women smallholder productivity in changing climate increased and physical burden of agricultural work reduced in rural areas in Niger

Women are more vulnerable to climate change impacts than men, as they are more dependent on the natural resources which climate change threatens the most. At the same time, rural women are effective change-makers for climate adaptation and resilient. In Niger, key results have been achieved, including: - Increase in rainfed crop production, which varies by speculation between +14% and +53% for women, leading to improved food security and decrease in population displacement internally and internationally. - Increase in the average rate of animal production of 216%, which has helped mitigate the consequences of the decline in crop production in deficit years. - Increase of expansion of income sources that helped rural women to cope with the impact of COVID-19 in 2020. The global income generated by the rural Nigerien women thanks to the sale of their production to supply the school canteens increased from US$ 83,090.65 in 2016 to US$ 682,171.83 in 2021; the savings mobilized within the village committees (CVIM) and communal migration observatories increased from 0 to 62,931,000 XOF (US$ 126,000); the monetary value of the cereal stock mobilized by the women beneficiaries is estimated at 44,170,000 XOF (US$ 76,155). - Increased access to land for of rural Nigerien women to land. 717 rural women exploited 324,897 hectares of land acquired by loan and 502 individual and collective compost pits were set-up based on organic manure and household waste, which contributed to improve the food security of the beneficiary households and mitigate the risks of irregular migration. Rural women in Niger spend most of their time on household chores such as preparing meals for the family and caring for children. In order to reduce the burden of household chores on rural women, UN Women, through the JP RWEE program, provided rural women with multi-functional platforms and carts to make their life easier. This equipment significantly reduced not only the drudgery of certain household chores but also saved time for income-generating activities. A study conducted by UN Women in 2020 showed that 47 % of women who benefited from the task-relief and income-generation component managed to save more than four hours per day, 33 % between two and four hours and 15 % two hours per day. Furthermore, the carts proved to be highly essential in transporting pregnant women to health centers for childbirth, thus reducing the maternal mortality rate and facilitating the registration of children on the birth register for the issue of birth certificates.
