Our project aims to explore the global disparities in gender by comparing metrics across regions (countries and continents) and across time. Our goal is to display statistics in three focus regions that we’ve chosen that we feel contain the most inequality and represent our culture, society, and global network the greatest. We’ve chosen our three focus areas to be the labor force and education, economics and politics, and health. We believe that these areas encompass a large portion of our global network and day to day lives and are the most relevant scales of measuring gender disparities.
All of our data has been collected from the World Bank’s Gender Statistics database. This database contains the recent gender statistics that spans topics such as education, health, access to financial opportunities, and decision-making/agency.
