A woman can travel outside her home in the same way as a man (1=yes; 0=no)

This indicator evaluates the extent to which societal norms and legal frameworks permit women to move freely and independently within their own country, as compared to their male counterparts. It reflects not only the presence of legal restrictions but also cultural attitudes and practices that may hinder female mobility. A value of '1' signifies an environment where women enjoy equal freedom in travel, suggesting progressive gender equality and societal support for women’s autonomy. Conversely, a value of '0' indicates potential barriers, such as legal constraints, cultural dictations, or safety concerns, which can significantly impact women's access to opportunities, personal safety, and overall empowerment. Thus, this measure serves as a critical lens through which to understand gender dynamics and mobility rights within different societies. Source:
