GENDER STATUS INDEX METHODOLOGY WORKSHOP FOR PHASE 4 OF THE AFRICAN GENDER AND DEVELOPMENT INDEX 7-8 jUNE 2016 ADDIS ABABA, ETHIOPIA

Outline 1. What is the GSI? 2. The GSI architecture 3. Computation of the GSI 4. Illustrated example

1. What is the GSI? The Gender Status Index (GSI): Is the quantitative part of the AGDI. Provides a quantitative assessment of gender equality. Is based on three blocks: Social power ‘capabilities’; Economic power ‘opportunities’; and Political power ‘agency’. Has 7 components; 11 sub-components; and 44 indicators.

2. The GSI Architecture

3. Computation of the GSI (1/4) Guiding principles: Each indicator has the same weight in each sub- component. Each sub-component has the same weight in each component. Each component of the GSI has the same weight in each block. Each block has the same weight in the GSI.

3. Computation of the GSI (2/4) For most variables, the indicator of gender equality is calculated as follows: Comparison (ratio) of female achievement to male achievement. The closer the indicator is to 1, the better the performance on gender equality is in the country. Example: Primary enrolment rate for girls: 65% Primary enrolment rate for boys: 80% GSI for primary enrolment rate: 65/80 = 0.8125

3. Computation of the GSI (3/4) Exceptions (Reverse indicators): 8 indicators do not follow the rule: These are related to health (stunting, underweight, mortality, prevalence of HIV/AIDS); income (share under the poverty line); time-use (non-market economic activities, domestic, care and volunteer activities); employment (youth unemployment rate). Calculate using: (1 – RW)/(1- RM) where RW = ratio for women and RM – ratio for men.

3. Computation of the GSI (4/4) The GSI for each sub-component, component and block is calculated as the simple arithmetic mean of respectively the indicators, sub-components and components. If an indicator is missing, the other indicators of the sub-component and components are re-weighted, to take account of the actual number of available indicators. The overall GSI = overall gender profile of the country is then compiled as the simple mean of the GSI for the three blocks.
