Gender gaps are slowly narrowing, according to Equity Gender Index, published by WIPS – Center for the Advancement of Women in the Public Arena at the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute.
The index is being published for the seventh time with the aim of being a tool for policy design and promotion, and presents a detailed picture of the state of inequalities in various spheres of life – work, education, poverty, political and economic power and more.
The new index will serve as the first comprehensive database of “SHE KNOWS” – A new knowledge center on gender and women in Israel, initiated by the Ministry of Science and Technology, in collaboration with Van Leer Institute, the Samuel Neaman Institute at the Technion and the Public Knowledge Workshop.
