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.

2022
Enhanced coordination, coherence and accountability of the UN system for commitments to gender equality and women’s empowerment
Coordination and accountability of UN system for commitments to gender equality and women empowerment was enhanced. A Gender Parity Pledge was developed and endorsed by the UNCT as well as a draft guide on Practical and Actionable steps towards achieving and monitoring the Gender Parity Pledge was consolidated under the UN Women’s leadership. As the standing chair of the UN Gender Thematic Group, UN Women led the development of the Gender Analysis to influence the Common Country Analysis that is to inform the next United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF). UN Women was also pivotal in ensuring that gender was mainstreemed in key UNSDCF processes.Disclaimer and notes
