With over 120 maps, charts and tables, the UNESCO World Atlas of Gender Equality in Education (2012) enables readers to visualize the educational pathways of girls and boys in terms of access, participation and progression from pre-primary to tertiary education, and places issues of gender equality in a broader context.
It features a wide range of sex-disaggregated data and gender indicators from the UNESCO Institute for Statistics. It also illustrates the extent to which gender disparities in education have changed since 1970 and are shaped by factors such as national wealth, geographic location, investment in education and fields of study.
