The World Economic Forum (WEF) global gender gap
Warned that these were offset by declining representation of women in politics, coupled with greater inequality in their access to health and education.
At current rates, the global gender gap across a range of areas will not close for another 108 years, while it is expected to take 202 years to close the workplace gap, WEF found.
The Geneva-based organisation’s annual report tracked disparities between the sexes in 149 countries across four areas: education, health, economic opportunity and political empowerment.

“Emissions Gap”?
1) Also called as the “Commitment Gap”
2) It is the difference between the low level of emissions that the world needs to drop to, compared with the projected level of emissions based on countries’ current commitments to De-carbonization.
findings of the report:
@ The world will fail to meet the 1.5°C temperature goal of the Paris Agreement unless global greenhouse gas emissions fall by 7.6 per cent each year.
@ The top four emitters (China, USA, EU and India) contributed to over 55% of the total emissions over the last decade, excluding emissions from land-use change such as deforestation.
@ The rankings would change if land-use change emissions were included, with Brazil likely to be the largest emitter.

Gender Gap Index:
@ India has been ranked 112th among 153 countries in the annual Global Gender Gap Index for 2020.
@ Published by : the World Economic Forum (WEF).
# The Global Gender Gap Index benchmarks 153 countries on their progress towards gender parity in four dimensions:
1. Economic Participation and Opportunity,
2. Educational Attainment,
3. Health and Survival and
4. Political Empowerment
@ The Index aims to serve as a compass to track progress on relative gaps between women and men on health, education, economy and politics.
@ Iceland, Norway, and Finland occupy the top three spots in the Report.
@ Over the Index, the highest possible score is 1 (equality) and the lowest possible score is 0 (inequality).
@ Performance on Four Indicators: India has improved to 18th place on political empowerment but it has slipped to 150th on health and survival, to 149th in terms of economic participation and opportunity and to 112th place for educational attainment.
@ The overall global gender gap will close in 99.5 years on average, across the 107 countries covered continuously since the first edition of the Report.
@ The largest gender disparity is in political empowerment. only 21% of the ministers are women (around the world) .
