Women’s economic participation and opportunity is one of the four areas within the Gender Gap Index that measures the levels of inequality between men and women. Women’s economic participation and opportunity gap remains the headline gender disparity as it is expected to be the second-slowest gap with 41.9% which remains to be closed. This is way above the average gender gap that stands at 32%. The current gap is evident that more needs to be done to enhance women’s economic participation and opportunity.
