Discriminatory social institutions are defined as the formal and informal laws, attitudes and practices that restrict women’s and girls’ access to rights, justice and empowerment opportunities. These are captured in a multi-faceted approach by SIGI’s variables that combine qualitative and quantitative data, taking into account both the de jure and de facto discrimination of social institutions, through information on laws, attitudes and practices. The variables span all stages of a woman’s life in order to show how discriminatory social institutions can interlock and bind them into cycles of poverty and disempowerment.
SIGI – Social
Institutions & Gender Index 2014
The 2014 edition
of the SIGI shows that countries have made great strides in reducing discrimination
through ambitious target setting and promising initiatives in transforming
discriminatory social norms. However, gaps and challenges remain across some
key areas affecting women’s socio-economic and political rights and freedom
from violence. Download 2014 Synthesis Report, which includes a summary
of the key results, including thematic and regional analyses.
This edition
covers the 108 countries included in the classification below. Countries are

and results. The table is interactive and allows sorting countries by region,
