Adjusted net enrollment rate, primary, female (% of primary school age children)

This indicator reflects the proportion of female children within the primary school-age demographic who are enrolled in either primary or secondary education, relative to the total number of children in that age bracket. By capturing the educational access and participation of girls, it serves as a critical measure of gender equity in education systems. A higher percentage indicates not only improved educational opportunities for girls but also signifies progress towards reducing barriers such as cultural norms, economic factors, and systemic inequalities. Analyzing this metric over time allows policymakers and stakeholders to identify trends, inform interventions, and assess the effectiveness of programs aimed at promoting female education, ultimately contributing to broader social and economic development goals.
