Gender Equality in the Economy Data was released in February 2023 alongside the publication of Equality within Our Lifetimes. This dataset includes a range of detailed indicators on laws and policies in 193 countries that are critical to advancing gender equality in the economy. Areas addressed include: laws prohibiting gender, caregiving, and intersectional discrimination at work; laws prohibiting sexual harassment at work; implementation and enforcement of laws prohibiting discrimination and sexual harassment at work; paid leave policies to support balancing work and caregiving across the life course including during infancy, childhood, adulthood, and old age; and laws that remove barriers to girls’ education. Longitudinal data is included to show how far the world has come in key areas, and how far it has to go.
