Gender equality is a topic of growing relevance worldwide, but its measurement is mainly limited to national levels, even in the EU. During the last 20 years, several experiences tried to exploit gender equality at the sub-national (regional) level, but they were country-specific studies focusing on one or a few domains (e.g. education, health, labor market) and did not provide an overview of territorial disparities in gender equality.
In this project, we propose a regionalization of the most comprehensive gender equality indicator, the Gender Equality Index (GEI) of the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE).
