Launching Ceremony of the Ethiopian gender development Index

NEWA, in partnership with MOWSA has produced and officially launched the first Ethiopian gender development use and dissemination. The EGDI is a important index that is used to measure the progress and status of gender development, to show the level and standard of Ethiopia in terms of gender equality, and to identify and indicate the gender gaps in Ethiopia. It also provides an internationally standardized gender development report of Ethiopia that can be presented to development partners/donors, and to propose relevant policy recommendations and programme priorities.
