Gender Parity Index, Tertiary Enrolment, 2001

Figures for 2001, as UIS published them · stored as published, never rewritten

The gender parity index for tertiary enrolment compares women’s and men’s enrolment in universities and colleges. 1 means parity; below 1, fewer women than men are enrolled; above 1, fewer men than women. UNESCO adjusts it so that a gap in either direction counts the same.

Gender Parity Index, Tertiary Enrolment, 2001 covers 104 countries. Qatar is highest, at 1.74844; Republic of the Congo is lowest, at 0.13788. The middle country reads 1.12963. Against 2000, 65 values changed (41 up, 24 down), 39 countries joined, 16 left.
