Abstract

Despite the centrality of gender equality to each of the Millennium Development Goals, gender is not mainstreamed into the goal statements, the indices chosen, nor the methods used for measuring against these indices. A gender review of 78 national MDG reports found that references to women and gender were largely ‘ghettoised’.The 2008 Gender Equity Index (GEI) reveals that no country in the world has achieved full gender equality119. The GEI shows that progress towards the achievement of gender equity is not associated with GDP levels
