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.

Government of South Sudan fulfils international reporting obligations on CEDAW, Beijing Platform for Action, UNSCR 1325, Maputo Plan of Action and SDGs

The Minister and the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Gender Child and Social Welfare (MGCSW) participated in the CEDAW Treaty body 80th session on the first South Sudan Report on the Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) which was historic as it was the first such dialogue South Sudan had engaged in before any human rights treaty body. The process of preparing responses to the questions from the CEDAW committee, having the dialogues and recommendations from the CEDAW committee will contribute to create enabling environment for gender sensitive transitional and post conflict legislative and policy that will promote gender equality and empowerment of all women and girls in South Sudan. The CEDAW committee noted that South Sudan has been making efforts to improve its institutional and policy framework aimed at accelerating the elimination of discrimination against women and promoting gender equality, such as the launching of the Technical Committee for the establishment of the Commission for Truth, Reconciliation and Healing constituted through Ministerial Order No. 02/2021 of 10 May 2021. The MGCSW and line ministries will be developing an action plan to address recommendations that were highlighted by the CEDAW committee, such as legal protection of women living with HIV, as well as taking forward efforts for the ratification of the convention of persons with disabilities.
