India ranks 108th in WEF’s gender gap index 2018

19 Dec 2018 Evaluate

India has been ranked 108th in the World Economic Forum's latest gender gap index, same as 2017. However, India has improved in wage equality for similar work and has been able to fully close the tertiary education gender gap for the first time. According to the WEF Global Gender Gap Report 2018, while India has many challenges as it ranks 142nd out of total 149 countries in the economic opportunity and participation sub index, it also has a few achievements.

WEF has said that India needs to make improvements across the board, from women's participation to getting more women into senior and professional roles. It noted that India continues to rank third-lowest in the world on health and survival, remaining the world's least-improved country on this sub index over the past decade. In fact, it said India actually widens the gender gap on this sub index this year.

However, on the positive side, the report indicated that India has slightly improved in WEF's wage equality for similar work indicator, where it stood at 72nd place. It also noted that the country has also closed its tertiary education enrolment gap for the first time in 2018 and has managed to keep its primary and secondary gaps closed for the third year running. It added that India has the second-largest artificial intelligence (AI) workforce, but one of the largest AI gender gaps, with only 22% of roles filled by women.
