Labor force participation rate, female (% of female population ages 15+) (modeled ILO estimate)

This indicator represents the share of women aged 15 and older who are engaged in economic activities, highlighting not only their involvement in the workforce but also the societal barriers and opportunities that influence their participation. By measuring this rate, we gain valuable insights into gender equality in the labor market and can assess the impact of policy initiatives aimed at empowering women. High participation rates can indicate greater gender equity, improved economic development, and the potential for increased household incomes. Conversely, lower rates may reflect systemic challenges such as lack of childcare, educational barriers, or cultural norms that inhibit women's engagement in the economy, making this metric essential for understanding women's roles in labor dynamics and overall economic health.
