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.

There was improved policy and enabling environment and financial situation in Tanzania to produce gender data and statistics due to the accrued effect but there was also additional and continuous support since the inception of WC program. The current infrastructures of gender statistics are well established and functional as a result of constituting the statistics units system in NBS/OCGS, gender statistics strategies, establishing coordination mechanism, availability of gender statistics SDG indicators and increased capacity of producers on gender statistics. To reduce the financial gap, UN Women Tanzania was able to mobilise additional resources for gender statistics production from the European Union. There were new data sets on VAW and Population census which were supported by UN Women to produce and these new information would further help to reduce the data gap in various areas of gender data Volunteer National Review, five year development plan and others. Now more data and information are available to use for the program and policy making to address the issue of women and girls in Tanzania.Disclaimer and notes
