Explanation:

· The GDI measures gender gaps in human development achievements by accounting for disparities between women and men in three basic dimensions of human development—health, knowledge and living standards using the same component indicators as in the HDI.
· The GDI is the ratio of the HDIs calculated separately for females and males using the same methodology as in the HDI.
· The closer the ratio is to 1, the smaller the gap between women and men.
