Figures for 2010, 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, 2010 covers 133 countries. Qatar is highest, at 1.86197; Chad is lowest, at 0.17458. The middle country reads 1.15806. Against 2009, 115 values changed (56 up, 59 down), 18 countries joined, 10 left.
