Uzbekistan Country Gender Assessment Update
4
In 2016, Uzbekistan ranked 105th out of 185 countries in the Human development Index and 
was categorized as a high human development country. In the Gender Inequality Index that 
same year, Uzbekistan was rated 57th out of 188 countries, mainly because of women’s.
7
In 2014, the Organisation for economic Co-operation and development (OeCd) included 
Uzbekistan in its Social Institutions and Gender Index. 
8
Uzbekistan ranked 52nd out of 86 non-
OeCd countries and received an overall score of 0.1475 (medium category).
9
Both the Global Gender Gap Index
10
and the Gender equity Index
11
show that Uzbekistan 
is close to attaining gender equality in education (enrollment, educational attainment, and 
literacy) and health (sex ratio at birth and healthy life expectancy).
despite these positive indicators, issues related to the status of women and gender equality 
still require attention, especially issues regarding (i) significant gender disparities in property 
ownership; (ii) gender asymmetry in higher segments of decision making and managerial 
positions; (iii) horizontal and vertical segregation in the labor market, where women mostly 
have seasonal and low-paid jobs in the formal and informal sectors; and (iv) traditional attitudes 
toward the roles of women and men in the family and society, which predominantly position 
women as mothers and family caretakers.
according to World Bank estimations of the national poverty line, the low-income population 
made up 27.5 % of the total population in 2001.
12
In 2015, 12.8% of the population was below 
the poverty line.
13
poverty-level estimates in Uzbekistan are based on estimates of the World 
Bank, which sets the absolute poverty line according to calorie consumption per person per 
day (2,100). In addition, the government classifies the vulnerable and low-income population 
as poor, and sets the low-income threshold at 1.5 times the minimum wage.
14
although rural 
poverty declined in 2015 (to 15.9%), it remained significantly higher than urban poverty (9.5%) 
(footnote 12).
