Share of youth not in education, employment or training, female (% of female youth population)

This indicator captures the percentage of young women, aged 15 to 24, who are disengaged from education, employment, or training, shedding light on a critical dimension of female youth empowerment. A high percentage in this category may signify barriers such as economic instability, cultural expectations, or inadequate access to educational resources, which can hinder their personal and professional development. Understanding this metric is essential for policymakers and stakeholders aiming to implement targeted interventions that promote gender equality and economic inclusion. By focusing on this demographic, initiatives can be tailored to create safe and viable pathways for young women, ultimately fostering a more equitable society that harnesses the potential of its entire youth population.
