Gender, Institutions and Development Database (GID-DB) 2023

The Gender Institutions and Development Database (GID-DB) provides policy makers, researchers and the public in general with key data on gender-based discrimination in social institutions. Data help analyse women's empowerment and understand gender gaps in key areas of development.

The GID-DB is produced on a regular basis, alongside the Social Institutions and Gender Index. Data from previous editions can be accessed for the following years: 2019, 2014, 2012 and 2009. The GID-DB 2023 covers 179 countries and territories and contains comprehensive information on legal, cultural and traditional practices that discriminate against women and girls.
